If you look similar things are taking place in North America. For the most part the US and Canada are very similar culturally although we can deny it as much as we like. There are talks, of things like a common NA currency, and identity cards here as well. I doubt the currency will ever take place but the NA identity card will likely be a possibility in the future. Our refugee and immigrant policies are almost the same and it would not be difficult to make them standard, we have many similar standards when it comes to toxic waste, various equipment, and the environment as well. The main differences in creating similar policies would be in compromising on the few things were we disagree. Plus you will have to get rid of that ridiculous British system of units and adopt the base 10 metric system.

Funny, I have never heard any talk of NA currencies or ID cards. Heck, they can't even agree on a national ID system for the US. And as I stated on the Metric thread, I don't think the metric system will be adopted here for quite a while.
