    I don’t think the EU has existed for most of the last couple centuries, and EU itself hasn’t poked its nose in the Middle East much.

      Don’t be deliberately obtuse. Obviously I meant the European nations which now comprise the core of the EU. You realize the age of colonialism and later on the age of imperialism was a exclusively European phenomenon, yes?

        exclusively European phenomenon, yes?

        Definitely mostly European, but Japan imperialism still happened

          Sure, but obviously it’s not pertinent to the middle east.
