Central Europe

"Central Europe? That's where there are Slavics and Germanics. Both of them are Indo-Europeans. Now... unlike the two World Wars, it's not Germany's responsibility to cause a great war in Europe... it's... Russia? Mph. It sure is."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Liberation!

Central Europe is the region comprising the central part of Europe. It is said to occupy continuous territory that are otherwise conventionally Eastern Europe and Western Europe. The concept of Central Europe is based on a common historical, social and cultural identity. Central Europe is going through a phase of "strategic awakening." with initiatives such as the CEI, Centrope and the Visegrád Four. While the region's economy shows high disparities with regard to income, all Central European countries are listed by the Human Development Index as very highly developed.
