I love France. I arrived there internationally and didn't even have to fill out a form. They looked at my passport and stamped it. I do not recall them having a scanner for the passport. This was 2-3 years ago. But this is the way it has been through most of the 20th Century. What happened to change all of this else where in the world?

Once you are in the EU Schengen area, you can cross numerous borders and travel to many different jurisdictions, all without a single checkpoint or identification required.

It sounds harder to get into Disney World than France.
