As a European, I think of Europe as being similar to the United States: Each country is it's own state and part of a whole.
In my opinion, saying that if Germany were standalone they would have a stronger currency is the same as saying "If California were standalone they would have a stronger currency".
The US has its Mississippi, Europe has its Greece.
