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?
