That's the direct effect from the 3 subfora our Community Director created the day before. See my
post#2.
Same thing happened to
Asia Forum that I frequent. I didn't get to see the other "sub"fora (China, Japan, Singapore, Thailand...etc) when I arrived at
Asia Forum. But now those subfora are at the top of
Asia Forum.

"Europe" should be at the same level as "United States", not under "The World".
How fora are ordered has everything to do with the forum structure, the issue you just raised. It was weird to see the following when I click on the new link to "Europe Forum":
There are no posts in this forum.
I don't know what's wrong with the setup for
Europe Forum. At least when I visit
Asia Forum now, every thread is still listed under the newly "squeezed" in subfora (at the top).
ETA:
I agree with you that Europe should be at least at the same level as United States. Geographically or "continentally" speaking, "United States" is smaller than "North America." Should "United States" get higher ranked forum position just because IB is a US-based company? Some standardization of fora categories based on world geography will be a much more welcome revision, IMHO.
FWIW, I do think this is all related and should be part of the existing thread:
