Freedom of expression in Europe has not come easily. Historically, bloody wars have raged over the continent waged by totalitarian regimes aimed at controlling fundamental freedoms, with freedom of expression always being near the top of the list of suppressed rights. But the impact of free speech, particularly with regard to the fall of Communism, has been monumental.
