This article delves deeper into the European part of the geography of the coronavirus pandemic that evolved from East Asia to Europe and the U.S. First of all, I compared each state’s responses to the crisis with the focus on the diversity within Europe. Secondly, I analyzed the influence of the COVID-19 crisis on the European integration and the future prospect of European community. Thirdly, I pointed out some crucial aspects to pay attention on the basis of the power relationship between Europe and other regions at the global level.
