This is definitely something that the RD's are aware of and solving this issue will not be as simple as anyone quite likes.

There have been some talk of creating a European district but that creates complications of travel and visa's. For some countries, due to the political situations the countries are in, it is easier to get a visa to visit the US than it is to get a visa to visit some other European countries.

Another option that has been talked about on CD is that International teams could "Opt in" to a district but that creates a whole other issue of what happens if they make it to DCMP.
