All the members of the European Union are European countries. Not all European countries are members. There are no countries in it that are not from Europe. However, Turkey, which is mainly in Asia, having just a very small part of it in Europe is currently a candidate for admission. For a country to even be considered for admission, they must be seen as a European or Europeanized country. Europeanized meaning having heavy European influence, relatable culture and views, and a majority or large European population.
Really, every country in the European Union is European. Every country who joins the EU must have some sort of major connection to Europe, mostly by people or culture. Cyprus is the only country not geographically located in Europe (it is geographically located in Asia), however, it is politically, historically, and culturally a part of Europe. Turkey is also a candidate for membership and if they get accepted then they would most likely earn the title of most non-European country, as only 3% of its land lies in Europe.
Yes, the United States is able to join the European Union, as any country is technically eligible. All a country has to do is swear allegiance to Europe and follow all rules and regulations. Now, wether they will actually get accepted or not is a different story. However, chances are the US would be accepted. The country boasts a great economy and military power internally and globally. It would bring much stability to the EU and both the EU, US, and perhaps every nation in the EU would benefit. However, there is no reason for the US to join the EU and chances are it never will.
For pre-Euro money, you must contact a bank in the European Union to convert to euro.

They were not invited. Countries are not invited to join. Countries must apply to join. So it was the Czech Republic's decision to apply and once their application was approved, they were able to join. They joined in May 2004.
Perhaps you meant the European Union? For a country to even be considered a candidate to join, they must be seen as a European or Europeanized country by the current members. For example, the US, Canada, Israel, Australia, and New Zealand could join for this reason as they are seen as Europeanized. However, China, Japan, India, and Uganda could not join as they are not seen as Europeanized. If they pass this "step", then they must swear to protect Europe and stand for everything Europe does; their primary goal is to protect and stand for Europe as a whole. This is usually done before becoming a candidate as well as being admitted. After this the process of candidacy starts. A country must first fill out an application which must be accepted by the Council of the European Union. Once accepted, the country goes on to being a candidate, where there are negotiations and talks about joining. If voting goes in favor for the country, the country will then acceed into the European Union and become a member.
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. To join the European Union countries must have fairly strong economies, be democratic, have abolished the death penalty and other cruel practices and have low(ish) levels of corruption.

Countries must apply to join. They have to meet certain criteria. These include having a stable democracy that respects human rights and the rule of law; a functioning market economy capable of competition within the EU; and the acceptance of the obligations of membership, including EU law. Evaluation of a country's fulfilment of the criteria is the responsibility of the European Council.
Countries that are located in Europe or are considered Europeanized countries can join the European Union. Europeanized countries are countries whose culture is adopted from Europe and that have a large European population. For example, Iceland, Norway, or the Ukraine can join the EU since they are all located in Europe, and thus are European countries. But the United States, Canada, or Israel could also join the EU since they are all Europeanized countries. They must also be democratic, with an economic system that is compatible with that of the other EU countries.

No, Pakistan is not a member of the European Union and probably will never be. To join the European Union, you must first be a European country or a country that has significant European influence, culture, population, etc. For example, Cyprus is geographically a part of Asia, but since Cypriot culture is so similar to Europe's and the language is present (High influence from Greece), the EU made an "exception". Another example is Israel, who too is geographically a part of Asia. However, Israel is truly the only westernized country in Asia and is relatively close to Europe, so the EU wishes to seek Israel sometime in the future. Also, a country must pledge allegiance and loyalty to Europe and its countries and well being. Pakistan most likely will not do this. European culture and Pakistani culture is very contrasting and some may consider them to be against each other.
