Israel was established on May 14, 1948. Geographically, Israel is an Asian country as it is located in the Middle East. However, politically and socially, Israel is a European country. Israel's strongest allies, with the exception of the United States, are located in Europe. In addition, the overwhelmingly majority of the population of Israel is derived from European immigrants, causing the culture of Israel to be Europeanized. In addition, Israel was formed out of the British mandate of Palestine after World War II to compensate Jews for the Holocaust. Furthermore, the European Union has expressed its desire to admit Israel in the future. In order to become a member of the EU, the country must be located in Europe or considered Europeanized. For Israel to be seen as a future candidate, it further illustrates the bond between Israel and Europe.
