The German question has a longer history then the war. In the time where the German national hymn was written "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles" was a call to abolish interstate borders between different German states. It was cosmopolitan in nature. Wanting a united Europe is not that different than wanting an united Germany.

At the same time most Germans who identify themselves on the internet still speak of themselves as German and not primarily as Europeans.

But I'm not certain that Raythen is German. He might also been born in one European country and living in another.
