Summary/Abstract: The referendum carried out in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland for leaving the European Union (EU) revealed the existence of Euro-skepticism and the dilemmas concerning their own future. This paper discusses the development of European integrations and the conflicts arising from existence of varied approaches to the current issues. This paper particularly emphasizes the interest of the United Kingdom (UK) on focusing on its own sustainability and the values acquired by applying the capacities of knowledge management. Aided by the Geographic Information Systems (GIS), this paper gives an in-depth and thorough analysis of the crucial features of the UK and the EU following the referendum outcome. Application of GIS makes it possible to reach better decisions, but GIS are also means that allows gathering, storing, analyzing and presenting these spatial data. Intentions and pursuit to reach a state of self sustainability cannot be accomplished unless there is appropriate climate and culture that ensures creation and implementation of knowledge, accompanied by permanent improvements of the applicable knowledge and its usage in new and better products and services.
