In 2040, 95% of the population will drive electric cars and, in addition, small cars will fly to work anywhere in the world.
There will be no economic connection with the different continents because it will be every man for himself.
This will give the home economy a serious boost and unemployment will be virtually non-existent.
Refugees will invariably be refused entry - the borders will do extra checks.
The military arsenal will be brought back up to standard and military service reintroduced because there will always be rulers who want to expand their borders.
Europe will have to continue to arm itself against Russia and China but there will be a good agreement between the european countries
There will be one single currency for all european countries and also the belaqstins laws, taxation systems will be aligned and equivalent.
Whether people will be happier remains a question mark.

So many years have passed since Europe was just a collection of states each traveling on their own, now we are finally truly united and going at the same speed and with the same goals. Cultural and commercial exchanges are perfect, social and economic differences no longer exist because we are all the same and interests are global and no longer personal, we have finally realized that only by traveling at the same speed do we count for anything compared to the rest of humanity, and we have also made great strides in the field of conservation of our planet because we have realized that the future depends on us.

In 2040, we find ourselves in a time of great differences between groups with different values. Some still hold on to conservative Christian values, but also a large group with mixed moral and spiritual values, mixed religion, taking a little from different isms and philosophies, and putting together one's own "belief." In the second large group it is materialism, pleasure and emotions that dominate. Overall, IA has become so big a factor that many find it difficult to distinguish truth and reality from deception and fake news. Politicians will try to stem the flow of information, and try to protect groups, especially children, but will always be hopeless afterwards, and be up against such large commercial and political forces that will make it almost impossible. Europe has fallen behind, due to a lack of consensus, and the average standard of living has fallen sharply, except for an elite that has come together in elite ghettos. We

In 2040, the world will be a much changed place, driven by technological progress, climate change and societal transformation. Artificial intelligence and robotics will be the order of the day, with automated systems performing many tasks. Transport will be electric, hydrogen or even autonomous and space travel will become more affordable. Medicine will reach new heights, with genetic engineering to cure hereditary diseases and advanced nanotechnology to rapidly regenerate damaged tissues. The climate crisis will force humanity to switch to renewable energy and cities will become "green", with vertical gardens and sustainable settlements. However, there will be challenges, such as increased social inequalities, cyber security threats and climate extremes. But through innovation and collaboration, humanity can build a more sustainable and better future.
