About this listen

In this episode, we talk about how the European Union fits into Europe’s long history of empire, collapse, and cooperation. We dig into the Union’s roots in post-World War history, the failed promises of nationalism in the nineteen twenties, the enduring influence of countries like France and Britain, the role of Russia’s gas strategy, and how old imperial habits still shape European energy and agriculture today. From Pilsudski’s vision of the Intermarium to modern debates over uranium, African resources, and Brexit, this story shows why the European Union is more than a trade bloc—it is Europe’s bet on a post-imperial future.
