The European Union is the largest trading bloc in the World (19% of the total world trade).
The European Countries that are not part of the European Economic Area
of Western Christian Civilisation are:
- Countries with Orthodox majorities of the European Union (Bulgaria, Cyprus, Greece and Romania) are integrated economically in the European Area of Western Christian Civilisation, but from a
cultural, religious and historical point of view fit better with Orthodox Civilisation
