The European Union (EU) was formed to bring together the countries of Europe. The EU helps its member countries with issues such as trade, security, and the rights of citizens. By 2013 the group had 28 member countries. However, in 2016, one member—the United Kingdom—voted to leave the EU. The country officially left the union on January 31, 2020.

HISORY
After World War II the countries of western Europe wanted to avoid future wars. Some leaders thought that having their countries work together would help.
In 1952 six countries—France, West Germany, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg—formed the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC). The ECSC brought together the countries’ coal and steel businesses. It was a success.
The ECSC countries then looked for other ways to cooperate. In 1958 they set up the European Atomic Energy Community (also called Euratom) to produce nuclear power together. They also formed the European Economic Community (EEC). The EEC worked to get rid of taxes and rules that limited trade in Europe.
The ECSC, Euratom, and the EEC merged in 1967 to form the European Communities (EC). More countries joined the EC in the 1970s and 1980s. The EC was so successful in economic matters that its members started working together in other ways as well. In 1991 the members agreed to form the European Union. The EU was officially created in 1993. The EU added more members in the years that followed.
The EU currency, or form of money, is called the euro. It was introduced in 1999. Most member countries switched from their own currencies to the euro.

The European Union has five main parts:
1. The European Parliament makes laws. The voters of EU countries elect its members.
2. The Council of the European Union is the EU’s main decision-making body. It is made up of representatives of the governments of the member countries.
3. The European Commission puts EU policies into action.
4. The Court of Justice holds trials.
5. The Court of Auditors makes sure that the EU’s money is managed correctly.
