Crossword Genius

I find EU surprisingly integrated (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unified

'integrated' is the definition.
(I know this)

'i find eu surprisingly' is the wordplay.
'surprisingly' is an anagram indicator (a surprising ordering of the letters).
'i'+'find'+'eu'='ifindeu'
'ifindeu' anagrammed gives 'UNIFIED'.

(Other definitions for unified that I've seen before include "Brought together as one" , "Joined together" , "Made one" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Mail.
