The European Community was founded on March 25, 1957, with the signing of the Treaty of Rome. This treaty established the European Economic Community (EEC), which aimed to foster economic integration among its member states. The EEC later evolved into the European Community, which eventually became part of the European Union (EU) with the Maastricht Treaty in 1993.
