Best Answer

Euro is the official currency of the European Union.

However, some countries inside the EU, decided to keep their traditionnal money (UK sill use the Pound).

The Euro zone is the group of countries that had adopted the Euro (€) as their currency.

On the 27 countries in the EU, 15 countries belong to the zone Euro.

The other countries have either refused (UK, Sweden, Denmark....) adopting the Euro or are waiting for their Economies to be fit with the legal economics demandings defined by the EU.

What impact does the euro have on Europe?

At the moment the euro has a huge impact of those in the euro zone and also those that aren't in the euro zone, the state of the euro affects the price of imports and exports as for example, places like England do a lot of trading with countries within Europe. However, for industries such as tourism the Euro can have a good impact for those who aren't in the euro zone as the value of the euro goes down- so instead of the euro being worth £1.50 it is worth £1.30.
