The Europia United (ユーロ・ユニバース, Yūro Yunibāsu) is one of the three major superpowers in the world in which Code Geass takes place. A democratic region laden with decadence and bureaucracy, the Europia United is at war with the Holy Britannian Empire at the beginning of the series. At the latter end of the war, Britannian forces successfully conquered almost half of Europe's territory, prompting members of the Union to break away and declare neutrality, or joined with the United Federation of Nations.
