Latvia, EU, UK and others 15 years into the future

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Europe is getting ready to federalize, with big autonomy for the current member states, and life couldn't be better. Latvia (the member state where this future idea comes from) has went ahead and become more liberal and open-minded following a victory of a coalition of liberal parties in 2038 Saeima Elections, and so did nations such as Serbia, Hungary and others following their respective elections. Investment into projects and social support is at it's highest point in 30 years, following full introduction of Rail Baltica, due to which the economy is at it's highest peak, higher than the one Latvia experienced after increased investment after joining EU in 2004, 36 years ago. The far-right rise of 2020s has decreased up to a point where parties as Vlaams Belang (in BE), Latvija Pirmā Vietā (LV), Fidesz (HU) and others do not register support higher than 2, maybe 3,5%. Northern Ireland and Ireland unite together - bringing the long history of division to an end; Scotland and Wales (after becoming independent), Ukraine (with the 1991 borders) and Sakartvelo (after a successful revolution against the georgian dream government in 2024-2025) join the EU. England is starting to reconsider Brexit, and starts reforms needed to rejoin the EU.

I wish for a peaceful world in 2040. The world is open to other people and religions. No war and no hunger, just a better world where people accept and respect each other. No hatred, no violence and no terror and attacks. No people who die in war or in an attack.

The technological future. Robots will no longer be an idea, they will be the present, with vehicles that will not only be electric, but will also have the characteristic of being able to fly for great distances on highways designed with special lights through the skies and buildings in the world. We will all have a helper at home made of technology to facilitate the work of the home and the education of our children, designed according to the needs of each one. Jobs will be increasingly remote and labor mobility will be better, making it easier for you to be hired anywhere in the world, as long as you have good computer equipment and a large capacity internet, that instead of being disadvantageous, will make it easier for information to travel at greater speed and immediacy

In 2040, everyday life is profoundly transformed by technology. Cities are smart, with self-sufficient buildings using solar energy and self-driving transport networks. Autonomous cars are finally a reality, reducing road traffic and reducing polluting emissions. Artificial intelligence is embedded in every aspect of society: Virtual assistants manage the house, book appointments and optimize work activities. Remote working is the norm, with holograms replacing video calls, making meetings more immersive. Medicine has also made great strides. Thanks to biotechnology, genetic diseases have almost disappeared and nanotechnologies allow immediate treatment for many diseases. Human longevity has increased, with many people over 100 in excellent health. Education is fully personalised where students learn through interactive experiences. However, new challenges are emerging. Dependence on technology raises ethical and social issues, and humanity must address the delicate balance between progress and mental well-being. Overall, 2040 is an era of extraordinary possibilities, where innovation continues to redefine the way we live, work and interact with the world.

I see a united Europe, a federation that decides by majority vote with binding force. Money is common. Europe mainly produces its own food, and agriculture is planned with the rest of the world in such a way that food is distributed, sold to everyone as needed. The population has decreased according to the carrying capacity of nature. There is no war in Europe and the war is over. There is one common army in the world, ,, that controls the entire ball. Europe is involved in this. The production of energy relies on wind and solar power, which has been built all over the world from common resources. Nuclear power is part of the energy mix. The state of nature has been improved and 30% of land and water areas are in their own peace without human intervention. All operations are financed from a single fund and the surplus is returned to this fund. Citizens have a living income (citizens' wages) and everyone is equal, but also obliged to work of their choice. The profit-seeking of companies and people is limited to a very small amount. Everyone has the right to vote and decisions are preceded by extensive civic surveys.
