      Great find! I suspect if you divided the EURO zone into two tiers, basically North and South, it would have worked much better.

        Even better if you divided it into 12 tiers, one for each country. Or 13, given north and south Italy are different.

            Just need to move the Scoittish border a bit to get that.

            Well, perhaps move it a lot, and put some twists in it.
