Synopsis
The European Union (EU) is a family of democratic European countries working together to improve life for their citizens and to build a better world. Family squabbles and occasional crises are what make the news headlines, but away from the cameras the EU is actually a remarkable success story. In just over half a century it has delivered peace and prosperity in Europe, a single European currency (the euro) and a frontier-free ‘single market’ where goods, people, services and capital move around freely. It has become a major trading power, and a world leader in fields such as environmental protection and development aid. No wonder it hasgrown from six to 25 members and more countries are queuing up to join.
