The TransEuropean Railway is a set of railways that cover the entirety of the European continent and was started construction in 1970 to help connect the European Continent in a safe way for tourists and work travelling alike. The railways would first be open in 1975, with the European Round Trip path being the most recent route created, having been starting operations in 2000. These railways were proposed at the March 22nd, 1970 European Conference in Belgrade, Serbia and Montenegro and was passed by unanimous decision.

Impact[]
The impact of the TransEuropean Railway led to the insane development of the European sphere, especially for massive stop gap cities like Venice, Constantinople, Moscow, Paris, and Prague. Tourism skyrocketed across the continent, with cities like Curtea de Argeș, Hamburg, and Monaco gaining the most. Technological marvels such as skipping such huge areas underwater without making the train's windows crack, some of the fastest trains in the world, and the usefulness of transporting people through these systems helped make this railway one of the most impactful creations of the 20th century.
