I'd like Europe to finally be truly united, perhaps with a real European government to reduce disparities but also to carry more weight internationally. I'd like us to become a magnet for scientific and technological talent and creativity, to show that Europe has a role to play. And that we are truly united all together to move Europe forward and be proud to be European as much as to be French. I also hope that education will be a priority, as well as the protection of all against the fake news that can cause so much damage in communities. It's a possible future, but one that's probably utopian given the ambitions of our leaders.

By the year 2050, Europe was a continent transformed. The transition to sustainability had been an arduous but successful process, driven by a citizens' movement that gained momentum in the 2030s. In cities, buildings were covered with green roofs and solar panels, while once-polluted rivers became arteries of life connecting communities. That day, Elena, a young researcher, was on her way to a conference on the Hyperloop that connected Paris and Berlin in less than an hour. Transportation was no longer dependent on fossil fuels thanks to the expansion of fusion energy and green hydrogen. During the ride, Elena was reviewing data on the latest biodiversity restoration project: an intercontinental network of ecological corridors allowing migratory species to move freely. The most notable change, however, was not technological, but social. Since 2025, emotional education and intercultural dialogue were promoted, leading to a more united Europe, with inclusive policies that prioritized well-being and equality. On that day, Elena reflected on the impact of the past: how the courageous decisions of her generation shaped a future full of hope.

Video games will become even more sophisticated in the future and the current games will not come close to matching them. Games will be based on virtual reality, which will make the game much more immersive and realistic. Virtual reality in the future will be different from today because it will be much more realistic, it will not only allow us to see images but also to feel them, to smell them, and even to replicate the emotion or the damage experienced in the game, but at a lower amplitude. In games, people will be able to realise their dreams, to experience unique adventures, and to broadcast this to others, who will also be able to immerse themselves in them if they so wish. These activities will help people to relax in an already difficult daily routine, will help to reduce the amount of stress they are experiencing and will simply allow the person to relax.

By 2025, the children of the new 'BETA' generation, educated in these new-age education systems, were being born. They were indeed experimental and for many were unsuccessful because teachers and educators were not able to learn the latest methods and adapt them to the new generation, which was SPECIFIC. The new technologies were advancing so fast that the older generation was left behind. The gap between the generations widened. Young people were very rapidly becoming alienated from their families, early independent, marginalised, insensitive. The young talents made art abstract, understandable only to them. They no longer followed old traditions and lost identity with their ethnic group and nation. Scientific PROGRESS was driving the new generation towards the unknown, the cosmos, the new world, which was becoming less soulful and emotional. We now communicate only at a distance, hugs and cordial conversations are a particularly exclusive phenomenon. Comfort and CHOICE are the main ingredients of life.
