The European Union

Explain the European Union.

--> The European union was a union of 27 states in Europe and was made in the 1992 by a treaty called the maasstricht treaty and was founded by the sixth member of the European economic community in 1957.It was an economic and political union.Later in the 1995 more countries decided to join like Austria,Finland,Sweden.Nine years later more countries decided to join like Czech republic,hungry,Malta,Lithuania,Poland,and Slovenia.When it finally got established the European union kept expanding the political scope of Europe economic community more in the fields of foreign and security policy.It provided them with the creation of the European bank and if currently what is called today a common euro.

Why was it a good thing?

--> It is a good thing because now in days when you are traveling to Europe its more easier and they wont stop you at the border and you wont get stropped every time you travel and wont have to show Ur passport and you can just keep going where ever you are going to go to.They where also allowed to work anywhere in Europe and before they couldn't they had to have jobs near where they lived.
