> How do you know someone is american? They tell you all about how great America's freedom is?

That doesn't match my experience of many Americans and Europeans. It also doesn't seem to fit a definition of "incredibly nationalistic". Incredibly nationalistic leads countries to wars and massacres, such as in Bosnia, Rwanda, Germany in WWII, etc. The EU and the US aren't going to war or massacring anyone.

The term 'European' is a strong sign of modern internationalism.
