Esports is an international movement to its core. You can compete with players all over the  world by the means of just one click. But how do we structure our movement, how do we  come together with one voice? Especially given the pressure the European integration is experiencing these days, esports might be carrier of the European idea, bringing a  young generation togethers as a transnational movement.
