EuroDocs contains essentially a documentary history of Western Europe, from the Medieval era to the modern day. Material is organized in a few different ways: by era (such as Medieval) and by country (such as Andorra). Depending on what one selects, one can either view a facsimilie of a document, such as a Medieval manuscript, page by page, or the text of a historical work (such as the letters of Karl Marx). The collection of materials is mainly based on what is already available over the Internet, and so tends to be very eclectic. While there is a great deal of information under Germany, there is hardly any under Andorra. While the Medieval/Renaissance era and the 20th century are well represented, there is hardly anything from the period in between. One collection that is quite strong is that of World War II documents, including information on the D-Day invasion, and treaties, as well as documents from the anti-Nazi groups. Unfortunately, these documents are not all collected into one site on the EuroDocs page, they are scattered in between a few different headings, and one has to look for them.
Most of the resources I encountered (outside of Medieval manuscripts) that were not English language were available in translation. In fact, there were did not seem to be many resources that were presented in their original language, if that language was not English.
One "cute" element, featured on just about every country page, is a quotation relating to web construction. These quotes are all printed in the language appropriate to each page (French for France, Latin for Vatican City, etc.).
While there is still a great deal of work ahead in order to make this site a complete documentary history of Europe, it is currently a very good resource for anyone interested in reading some of the most important documents in European history. I definately recommend a visit.
