Thanks for your insight. Can you share examples of superficial homogeneousness but deep differences in Europe?

  From an outside perspective, I see that most of them are proud of the European values and how they permeate their societies since integration with other countries 'till a more friendly aspect from the richer countries (Central Europe) to the less fortunate ones (Eastern Europeans). But as soon some of the traits of those countries starts to appear in a slightly fashion, those friendly societies will fight tooth and nail to establish their values even over the European ones (e.g. social integration, education, etc). DHH made a great summary over it [1]. For instance, in some parts of Central Europe, if you're speaking a different language with your child on a train people feel entitled to ask you to stop and speak their language since you live there. I lived in US for a while and I never have seen that. [1] - https://world.hey.com/dhh/the-reality-of-the-danish-fairytale-78069fbf https://world.hey.com/dhh/the-reality-of-the-danish-fairytal...
