Maybe you were asking why are only certain countries in the European Union? The European Union is a political and economic organization consisting of 27 countries in Europe.

The European Union does not consist of all of European countries, so European Union citizenship does not unite all of Europe.

The European Union is an organisation, not a country. A person who is a national of one of the countries in the European Union, is a national of only that country.
