EU
EU (European Union), APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Conference), NAFTA (North America Free Trade Area).
The European Union started out in 1957 with just 6 countries - there are now 27 - and was known as the European Economic Community. Like NAFTA, there is a lot of trade agreements between the countries, in what is often referred to as the Common Market. The EU is much more advanced than NAFTA, covering a lot of other aspects of the relationships between the countries. It would cover things that the NAFTA covers, like laws in relation to trade, industry, workers, travel, agriculture and the environment.
Free trade blocs are regional agreements between countries that aim to reduce or eliminate trade barriers, such as tariffs and quotas, to facilitate the free exchange of goods and services. These blocs encourage economic cooperation and integration among member states, leading to increased trade efficiency and competitiveness. Examples include the European Union (EU), the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Free Trade Area. By promoting trade among members, free trade blocs can enhance economic growth and foster political relationships.
To be in a bigger and strong family. To have better access for trade, movement and job inside the union.
The EU brings many benefits especially to countries with smaller populations or countries which are still poorer than other EU countries. A common market for trade means that a manufacturer in one country now has a market of over 500 million people to whom they can sell without trade tarrifs or other barriers. Open borders mean that there are no limits to persons traveling, residing or working in other EU countries. This also means that businesses and individuals from other countries can invest in that country. If the EU were considered as a country then it would be the richest in the world and with one of the largest populations (after only China and India). The EU also brings peace and stability - why fight over borders when borders mean very little in the present EU?
yes it was one of the first countries to go in the eu
They are trading blocs with countries as members.
EU (European Union), APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Conference), NAFTA (North America Free Trade Area).
EU policies aim to ensure the free movement of people, goods, services, and capital within the internal market, enact legislation in justice and home affairs, and maintain common policies on trade, agriculture, fisheries, and regional development
NAFTA covers only North America, while the WTO is a global organization.
Generally speaking, a free trading zone is an area or a place where products are bought and sold without the restrictions of taxes, tariffs or special treaties designed to regulate trade. Within the European Union for example, EU nations are free to trade with each other as if the EU nations were a defacto single nation where goods and products are bought and sold.

The EU is just the European Union. Any countries of Europe can apply to receive EU membership if they qualify. The EU (or Euro) zone is the collection of member countries which share the currency the Euro. The Euro is now compulsory for all EU members, except the UK and Denmark which have opted out but may join in the future.
How does UK benefit for being in the EU? Participate in the EU economy (same currency) Free trade in the EU. (but there are other trade blocks) Free borders with EU countries inherit some laws from EU ( can be added to UK) make treaties for complete EU at one point, rather than individually country to country.
