Well, I know in Britain there's still consternation about the EU, and whether we gave away our power to govern ourselves as a state, so I thought I'd make this.
The European Union is a set of 27 member states joined together by the Maastricht Treaty signed in 1993. The original EU was an evolution from the European Coal and Steel Community, which emerged after WWII. You probably know that the EU has its own currency, the Euro, which all but 11 of the member states have as their official monetary unit.
Also, the EU Council decides to pass laws that affect any nations entered into the Maastricht Treaty, such as the law meaning that nobody can work more than 48 hours a week, and the European Arrest Warrant system.
This is controversial, however, because these laws, in many cases, override those of a member nation’s own statute book. But what do you think about the EU?
