The point I was trying to make is that in many countries in Europe, we can use our electronic IDs to do a lot of things in everyday life that cannot be done online in the US. You can see all of the services we can access in Croatia here: https://gov.hr/en/catalogue-of-services/10

The eIDs also require a biometric picture of your face and 2 fingerprints, which are encoded into the card, as required by European Union regulation.

When I am ready to I can even apply for my European Engineer license online on that portal, with my eID using a Smartcard reader on PC (highest level of security for authentication of credentials).
