The Advanced European Union [World Superpower]

The Advanced European Union, abbreviated as AEU, is one of The Three Major World Powers during 2174 AD. The AEU consists of most of The Nation States in Europe and some of the territories in Africa.

The Advanced European Union is a supranational politico-economic community consisting of Iceland, The islands of The Barents Sea, Greenland, European Russia and Most of The Traditional Continent of Europe. Its institutional makeup is comparable to that of the real-world European Union. Despite The AEU's control of the presently incomplete Orbital Elevator Tower in Africa, it possesses very little territory on that continent. The community operates under the arbitration of a parliamentary body.

As of 2174 AD, The AEU's Orbital Elevator is still not completed but in operational status. However, it has developed a new type of Mobile Suit capable of drawing energy from The Orbital Elevator, starting with The AEU Enact. The new MS technology is part of The AEU's new military expansionism objective. The AEU is also known to trade arms, notably The AEU-05 AEU Hellion to other nations and organizations as well as terrorists. It is also believed that The AEU has more troops and armed forces in it's Orbital Tower than the number of troops that it should according to international treaty.
