French foreign minister, Robert Schuman suggested that industries producing coal and steel in France and Germany should come together. This came to be known as the Schuman Declaration. This led to the formation of the European Coal and Steel Community. This was joined by Italy, Netherlands, Rome and Luxembourg. This organisation led to the creation of the European Economic Community. This further evolved into the European Union (EU). The Mastricht treaty signed by several nations led to the formation of the European Union. The EU went on to create a common currency with a common market to promote trade without any restrictions. The EU consists of 27 member states today.
