Feature on how the EU came about
October 3, 2011 · Leave a Comment
The EU came about as a means of preventing another World War as the foundation was formed after World War II when integration among the countries was seen as the best way to steer clear of the violent nationalism that had caused problems for the last several decades. The first approach was to form the European Coal and Steel Community which failed to remain together, but out of which came the European Economic Community to discuss the creation of a customs union and the European Atomic Energy Community to help stimulate the growth of nuclear energy.
