The "Europe" does not exist as an entity like the "US". There is no single main language, there is no centralized military, no venture capital market like in the US, there is no single currency (the UK for example is no longer in the EU and never integrated deeply, especially not the currency), ...

There is the EU, but even there the integration is weaker and one of nation states with their own kings, presidents, prime ministers, chancellors, ... The EU 'president' is in no way comparable to the US 'president'. The EU military is not like the US military.
