Pax Europaea
Pax Europaea
(
English
:
the
European
peace
– after the historical
Pax Romana
), is the period of relative peace experienced by
Europe
in the period following
World War II
—often associated above all with the creation of the
European Union
(EU) and its predecessors. After the
Cold War
this peace was even more evident because of the fall in political tensions, with the major exception of the
Yugoslav Wars
and
various tensions with and within Russia
. In 2012, the EU institutions were awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize
.
