How might economic unity have contributed to peace in Western Europe in the postwar year?

Economic unity led to peace in Western Europe post WWII, but not right after (1946). France initiated the establishment of an economic unity between France and Germany, ultimately becoming the European Union. France wanted to economically bond the two countries together as to make a future war physically impossible to happen. The European Steel and Coal Community was created that eventually gave birth to the European Economic Community which eventually gave birth to the European Union.

1951


What country joined the European union in 1957?

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.
