Eurasiathe

Eurasiathe is a term used in academic and speculative discourse to refer to a hypothetical transcontinental region and governance project that would span portions of Europe and Asia along the Eurasian landmass. The name is a portmanteau of Europe and Asia and is not an officially recognized entity.

Geography and borders are not fixed; the concept envisions cooperation across regions including Western and Central Europe, the Caucasus, the Middle East, Central Asia, and parts of Siberia. There are no universally agreed borders, and the term emphasizes integration over national divides.

If realized as a political construct, Eurasiathe would rely on a layered system of governance with some supranational institutions and ongoing national participation, balancing sovereignty with common policy areas such as trade, energy, and environmental management.

Proponents envision integrated infrastructure—rail corridors, energy pipelines, digital networks—and diversified economies spanning manufacturing, services, and resource extraction, anchored by large regional markets and cross-border supply chains.

Mosaic of languages, religions, and traditions; no single dominant culture; potential for a shared regional identity built through education, media, and cultural exchange. A common lingua franca is occasionally proposed but is unlikely to replace multilingualism.

Originates in mid-20th-century geopolitical and regional studies and has appeared in speculative fiction and policy debates since then. It remains a theoretical construct rather than an implemented political entity.
