The European Union, with the passage of the Treaty of Lisbon, has already brought economic and foreign policy under the control a central European government, in addition to the creation of a European President and a European Foreign Affairs Minister. The European Union already has the three branches of government, the legislative being the European Parliament (EP) and the Council of the European Union (CEU), the executive being the European Commission (EC), and the judicial being the European Court of Justice (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). There are already many instances of these joint European institutions overiding the power of the national governments of the member-states (e.g. Italian practice of putting up crucifixes in public schools was banned by the ECHR).
There is still a ways to go, though, before Europe is completely united. Military matters and defense policy is still in the hands of national governments (although the Treaty of Lisbon gives the European Union the power to create a European defense policy with the unanimous approval of the member-states). There is also a growing eurosceptic movement, particularly in Great Britain, that is opposed to greater integration. However, most political analysts and speculators believe that the European Union will eventually become a European Federation or a United States of Europe. No one knows when, or if, it will happen, but the ingredients needed to make it happen are already there.
