No. It's not like your ridiculous example. Not even close.
Exactly, it's a ridiculous example because it sounds just as ridiculous as saying US and EU are in principle the same type of union.
I was being hyperbolic with my last sentence so you can see how ridiculous your statement sounds to me.
I didn't say they're in principle the same union.
I said the principle is the same.
The principle of multiple smaller states adhering to a larger entity that can enact rules over everyone, and then send representatives to this entity.
I can see how ridiculously bad your reading comprehension is
