What the EU gives to smaller countries is a place among the big countries of Europe. My Whack-O Theory is to see the EU as a place for small nations, and even not-really typically considered nations. to function among a community of nations. After the demise of the Soviet Union, satellites became independent states though clustered in a Russian Federation, each state on its own but sharing with one another as allowed by the EU format.
Albania, Macedonia both are seeking membership in the EU. But I can imagine that opportunity being offered to those regions in Europe longing for independence to pursue their own cultures and trade and commerce opportunities in their own right: for instance, Catalan in Spain, Scotland in Great Britain. A region which has economic wherewithal to be independent should be given the chance. Nothing but good can from the experience of being free.
