Upon the advent of Donald Trump’s victory for the White House last month, many populist movements bestrewing Europe have been whipped into an unprecedented activity, one that threatens to topple the traditional establishment parties that have overseen the continent for the past thirty or so years. These movements are characterized for their nationalism and “Eurosceptic” outlook. Once the outsiders of the political scene, they are currently vying for power in several countries, more than ever.

Firstly, your eyes look upon France, whose National Front has been seething with activity as masses flock following numerous terrorist attacks and gratuitous numbers of immigrants. Marine Le Pen, leader since 2011, promises that they can cure Europe’s second biggest economy’s stagnation, which overlooks a 10% unemployment rate and a GDP growth rate of just .2%. The National Front saw a 27% election result in 2015, and the number is sure to be greater hereafter. Marine Le Pen also pandered to the French’s frustrations, much like Trump, and encourages Frenchmen to look to the post war glory days.

Now, Germany, the Eurozone’s bulwark, has also experienced a sudden spike in reactionary populism, as German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s recent promise to accommodate a million refugees, mostly from the Middle East, met strong opposition among as many as 80% of all Germans today. The Anti-migrant party Alternative for Germany saw its parliamentary election result figures more than double.

Meanwhile, in Italy, notable for its gradient of political parties, has seen a number of populist parties grow in strength. Just recently, Prime Minister Matteo Renzo proposed changes for the Italian but was barred by an Italian rejectionist majority of 20% in the polls, setting the stage for a change in leadership. The shift to far-rightist favor smiles upon Italy’s Northern League and Five-Star Movement, which promise to reinstitute the Italian lira and leave the European Union.

Austria’s presidential election saw Norbert Hofer, Freedom Party candidate, ride a wave of populism that saw the closest chance yet of the EU’s first far-right head of state since the Second World War. Hofer called for hard action against the waves of immigrants that flock Austria; he exhorted action and the preservation of the country’s “ethnic culture.”

So all of Europe is roiling in a particular and decisive moment, as the feelings of Europeans seem to be especially poignant regarding the sudden, massive influx of immigrants; economic stagnation popularly attributed to the EU; and terrorist activity that has bestirred voices calling for strengthening of national security. Europeans are getting changes, yes, but not the ones they want.
