Introduction to Historical Crisis Committee

The guns have finally fallen silent, but the battle for the future of the world is yet to be concluded. This year EUROsimA brings you the 2026 edition of the Historical Crisis Committee, the Paris Peace Conference. Empires have fallen apart, economies left crumbling, Bolshevism slowly creeping into Europe, cities burnt to ashes, countries pursuing their own agendas, and the call for peace ringing in the ears of the leaders preset the climate for diplomatic conflicts to emerge.

Carrying the burden of the Great War and redrawing the world map, the “Big Five” will focus on creating lasting world peace, reshaping the world order from ground up, securing their borders from conflicts, and forming an international decision mechanism while mitigating the bitter clash between Wilson idealism and the demands for extreme retributions against Germany.

While the delegations of the recently emerging states and marginalized territories, conveyed by the promise of sovereignty, will focus their strategy on securing international recognition, defining their contested borders, and surviving the diplomatic tug of war created by the great powers dictating the world's fate.

As the peace treaties are drafted within the conference, the people of Europe are left asking the same question: will the leaders be able to forge a peace for generations to come, or will they plant the seeds of a far more devastating war in the future?
