is creating "a new order in Europe.” He declares THEORIES

that he is uniting Europe, and preparing it for a bet- ter life. He says his terrible campaigns are part of a crusade or revolution for the good of Europe.

Might not this contention be true? Would not the unification of Europe be an immeasurable boon? If the people of Europe were bound together and harmonised, would not one of the chief causes of war in the world be removed?
