It doesn't have a specific number. In 1973 it joined what was then called the European Economic Community. There had been 6 countries as members before that, but on the same day that it joined, both Ireland and Denmark joined, so there were then 9 countries in it. None of them could be said to be the 7th, 8th or 9th country to join. In 1993 the European Union officially came into existence, by which time there were 15 members, so they could all be said to have become members at the same time too.
