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.

The calm
I would like to see sustainability goals actually implemented and put into practice. Seeing people come together and have discussions instead of screaming over each other. Communities coming together and sharing the burden of responsibility of a nation and governments that actually uphold their promises and run in more efficient manner. I don’t dream of huge developments or loud changes but instead, a calm world where everyone can finally relax.

Es ist besser in Frieden und Harmonie zu leben als rechten Hetzern nachzulaufen
It's early morning in the year 2040 and the chip implanted in my brain wakes me up at the appointed time. I wash up and have breakfast before taking the bus to work. There is no more private transport. Instead, I hear birds singing and see butterflies flying from flower to flower. It's hard to believe that my grandparents destroyed the environment with so much energy 20 years ago. As if they wanted to rob their children of their future. I am glad that everything turned out differently. Back then, far-right forces took over the government in many countries. After they left behind a shambles and also abolished democracies, they were sent packing by popular uprisings around the world. This was followed by an era of peace and freedom. An intact environment is now important to us, we have learned this lesson. And this era is still going on. Hopefully the old days will never, ever return.

Il mondo che vorrei
In 2040, medicine is technologically advanced, pollution is greatly reduced. There are no limits and barriers, all men are equal, whether black or white. Women have the same rights and possibilities as men. Respect for every living being prevails.

Kurztrip zum Mond
I imagine that in 2025 I will be able to take a spontaneous day trip to the moon with my family. There we can experience the wonders of weightlessness and enjoy a fantastic view of the blue planet, our home, from above. Such a short break far above our usual hemisphere is a very special experience.
