> I could give you a very simple example of cultural similarity across Europe. Religion. Pretty much the majority of European countries are Christians.

Christianity is kind of a big religion. The Americas (note the 's') could be said to be Christian. So I guess the Americas is one culture. At least Euorope also has the Orthodox branch. Not to mention the muslims in the Balkans.

> IMHO there are more similarities between European countries than between US States.

It genuinly blows my mind that some people actually believe this.

Having lived in Belgium, Sweden, and now in France - 3 different EU countries in 3 years- I can 100% confirm the parent commenter's almost comical ignorance about the heterogeneity of European life and mores.
