i know americans say this all the time but i'll always be fascinated by the EU being about half the size of the contiguous USA but being made up of entire countries instead of states of one country. like y'all can just hop on a train and be in another country in a matter of hours.
granted, i live near canada so i can go to one other country fairly quickly, but y'all can just pass through a whole country on the way to a different, even further away country. and obviously state vs country is all social constructs etc but it's still just wild to me
