Scala may have fallen out of favor but was quite popular few years ago. And perhaps still is the most popular EU-designed language (developed by EPFL).

> EPFL is not even in EU
For people who don't get this, EPFL is the Swiss Federal Technical Institue in Lausanne. Switzerland isn't part of the EU or EEA but has instead integrated itself with the EU very closely via a mindboggling number of bilateral agreements with the EU members and the Schengen agreement which allows for free, borderless movement. This has the effect of making it seem very much like they are part of the EU without actually being as such.

Sadly, I’m old enough to remember that Ada was the result of a US initiative to standardize a capable language for embedded development.
A good friend worked on the well regarded Telesoft compiler…
Kotlin is from St Petersburg, it's even named after an island near it.
True to both. My brain not braining. Was thinking Europe-based/driven. Python started in CWI but PSF is USA-based.
Python. Python is the most popular language designed in EU. EPFL is not even in EU
