What country joined the European union in 1957?

Answer 1

In 1957 there was no European Union. Instead, it was called the European Economic Community (which later transformed into the European Union). It had six founding members: Italy, France, Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands, and West Germany. The United Kingdom was offered to be a founding member, but refused. Denmark, Ireland, and the UK later joined in 1973, Greece was added in 1981, and Spain and Portugal both joined in 1986. West and East Germany later reunified in 1990, three years before the EEC would be engulfed by the EU.

Answer 2

There was no official European Union in 1950. Technically, the European Union wasn't established until 1993. However, the EU is basically the European Coal and Steel Community (later becoming the European Economic Community) grown up. The ECSC was established in 1952, so there were no members in 1950. However, 1950 was the year that the idea of a supranational union in Europe came into being. France wanted to intertwine its economy with Germany in order to make another war between the two nations impossible.
