The geographically accurate cartogram above represents the borders of the nations in the region based on the number of active military personnel.  Once again, the kingdom of Saudi Arabia dominates its neighbors.

This geographically accurate cartogram represents how the EU's borders would have been had they been drawn up according to each country's GDP.  The United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy take up large swaths of the Union leaving the remaining states crunched up against each other.

Altering the borders of the European Union based on the number of military personnel each state has creates an unrecognizable European Union.  In this geographically accurate cartogram, the United Kingdom, Italy, and Greece expand their borders drastically while Sweden and Finland cede much of their territory.

The EU, if it were to ever have a unified military force would see most of its personnel come from very few states.  As can be seen in the map above, Nordic and Baltic countries have a limited number of military personnel.
