About EU:
The European Union (EU) is a unique

cover much of the continent. The EU was created in the aftermath of the Second
World War. The first steps were to foster economic cooperation: the idea being
that countries who trade with one another become economically interdependent
and so more likely to avoid conflict. The result was the European Economic
Community (EEC), created in 1958, and initially increasing economic cooperation
between six countries: Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the
Netherlands. Since then, a huge single market has been created and continues to
develop towards its full potential.
