I personally find the different "map" views really great! An idea to complement Jonathan's proposals (see below)****: an animation could focus exactly on this: the different... maps of Europe. 

A map is a familiar view so it might be easier to introduce some other, more complex, concepts to this familiar setup.

For inspiration: :))))
2 nice clips with icons on energy matters (quite elaborate, with voice and effects):

Important for the "animation" - add in the end a screen with text
"To be continued on:

Have a great evening

****We will produce animations on the basis of interactive graphics which will be able to be played without input from a user. These will alternate between the various views comparing EU countries, and 'zoomed in' views showing information about all the different EU member states. The sequence should be long and varied enough for it to be interesting to watch, and not too repetitive!
