They’re similar to the US under the Articles of Confederation. Separate states with free passage among them. Going from France to Germany is effectively the same as going from Georgia to Tennessee.
Free passage, but limited rights. In the US, you could move to a state with “easier” welfare programs, and collect them… whereas in the EU (Schengen), you’re not allowed to stay longer than 90 days at a time without having a job/being able to support yourself.
Exactly, the US also used to have serious borders, now you can travel and work anywhere you want. EU is more interesting in this case because it’s more recent and it consists of national states.
