If you go into jw.org and to “Legal Resources” section, you can find “European Information Packets” which contains older (from 2010s) but relatively similar versions of these newer brochures. Originally, before these newer pamphlets were uploaded, the word “European” wasn’t there, and it simply read “Downloadable Information Packets” for these older brochures.

 

So it looks like the older versions of these books were categorised separately as “European version,” and a newer version has been written again as “Global version.” The newer version contains some similar topics to older ones.
