European Union
Each Member State of the European Union has its own system and in general a worker should claim unemployment benefits in the country where he last worked. For a person working in another country than its residence country (a cross-border worker), he will have to claim benefits in his country of residence. More specific rules and information is available on the Your Europe portal.

“I should think the American admiration of five-minute tourists has done more to kill the sacredness of old European beauty and aspiration than multitudes of bombs would have done.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Every good cause gained a victory when the Union troops were triumphant. Our final victory was the triumph of religion, of virtue, of knowledge.... During those four years, whatever our motives, whatever our lives, we were fighting on God’s side. We were doing His work. What would this country have been if we had failed?”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
