Sure, the coalescing of the European Union is an interesting historical process - but it's not the first time that it has occurred. The US did it in 1789. Italy, Germany, Canada (and probably other countries) resulted from aggregates in the mid-late parts of the 19th century. It happened in other times and places under people like Charlemagne and the Caesers. And such a merger, such as the USSR, may form and crumble within the span of a single human lifetime.
All of that is interesting.
But it does not answer my question why some regions of the world would be allowed overlapping ccTLDs while the same is denied to other regions.
It may be good that .eu is added to the root zone. And perhaps .eu is big enough that it justifies unique handling. But ICANN ought to articulate the principles that guide these choices.
