The European Union is a
politico-economic union of 28 member states that are located primarily in
Europe. It has an area of 4,324,782 km², and an estimated population of over
508 million.
The European Union grew
out of a desire for peace in a war-torn and divided continent. Five years after
World War II ended, France and Germany came up with a plan to ensure their two
countries would never go to war against each other again.
