| With all the talk at the moment of the next enlargement of the EU and whether Turkey should join, maybe it's time to ask what the natural boundaries of Europe are and just how big it should grow? What if the EU mirrored the old Roman Empire? Let's set the borders as the Arctic to the north, Sahara to the south, Urals to the North east and the Persian gulf to the south east. That would mean admitting Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait, Lebanon, Turkey, Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, a bunch of Russian republics and possibly even Iran. Well why not? I usually ask 1-2-5-10 years for these questions, but I think this time it better be 10-20-50-100 years. My feeling is that this is inevitable, so would you care to put a date on it?
