Geropa

Geropa is a portmanteau of "Germany" and "Europe," typically used in a pejorative manner to suggest that Germany is exerting undue influence or control over the European Union and/or the continent of Europe. The term often implies a resurgence of German dominance, whether economic, political, or cultural, and is frequently employed by those critical of European integration policies or the perceived imbalance of power within the EU.

The term's usage often carries negative connotations and is associated with anti-German sentiment, anxieties about the future of European sovereignty, and resentment toward Germany's economic strength. It is often found in online forums, opinion pieces, and political commentary, particularly within Eurosceptic circles or among those wary of German leadership within Europe. The frequency of its use tends to increase during periods of economic or political tension within the European Union, especially when Germany is perceived as dictating policy or imposing austerity measures on other member states.
