The European Union is a post - World War II project designed to secure peace in Europe. It was founded as the European Community for Coal and Steel in 1953 and became the European Economic Community through the Treaty of Rome in 1957. The EC has expanded many times in the last 60 years.
In 2016, the citizens of the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, the first time any member state has done this.
