ABSTRACT
Italy alongside nine other European countries amongst which France and the more indebted states of Spain and Greece stand out have requested a "powerful, cohesive, and timely" financial/economic response from Europe. Until recently, the only certainty in Italy was the Save States Fund, or the European Bank loans to states, which would in exchange lead to accepting "blood, sweat, and tears" reforms. Even in the people current circumstances the longstanding divisions in the European Union continue to thrive: the northern states versus the Mediterranean states that are frightened by the prospect of becoming another Greece 2015. Some of the very Northern Axis states that took part in the 2015 Greek debt shenanigans, such as France, now find themselves asking for "solidarity measures" in order to manage this current crisis alongside other indebted states. Due to many factors, that which the people are living is not just a natural catastrophe, a state of exception, or a world war.
