History

World  War II (193 1 5) destroyed the economy of Europe. Many Europeans hoped that the reconstruction of Europe would result in an agreement to create a unified European state. In May 19 0 Schuman proposed the creation of an organisation to regulate the coal and steel industry in West Germany and France; Belgium, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, France and West Germany joined the organisation. The European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) was established in August 195 . In June 55 the foreign ministers of the six nations  in the ECSC agreed to examine the possibilities for further economic integration. This new effort resulted in the European Economic Community (EEC) and the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom).The aims of the EEC were the elimination of trade barriers among member nations and the creation of a common policy for managing and supporting agriculture In response to the EEC, Great Britain and six other non- EEC countries formed the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) in 1 0.The three communities the EEC, the ECSC, and Euratom) merged in July 67 under one set of institutions, the European Community.In January 1 7 , after nearly two years of negotiations Great Britain, Ireland, and Denmark joined the EC. Greece entered the EC in 9 1 and, after eight years of negotiations, Spain and Portugal joined in 198 . In March 1989 the European Monetary System (EMS) was established as a first step toward achieving an economic and monetary union, called EMU. The EMS helped lower inflation rates in the EC.The most significant development in the EC during the 9 s was the progress toward implementing a single European market.West Germany and France proposed to pursue closer European unity. They began work on a series of agreements that became the Treaty on European Union.Representatives from each of the EC countries negotiated the Treaty on European Union in 9 , and in December the European Council met at Maastricht, the Netherlands, to consider a draft version. The final treaty was signed by the European Council on February 7, 1 2. The European Union was established on November , when the treaty went into effect.
