EEC

History

In 1951 was signed the Paris agreement. It marked the emergence of the European community of coal and steel. This is the first unification of the whole galaxy. It is based on the principle of supranationalism and international law. It was created with the aim to further integrate the economies of its members and prevent war.

Originally it was planned the establishment of two more communities: military and political. However, their concept of the country did not come to an agreement. It was decided to pay attention to economic integration, not political. In 1957 it signed the Roman agreement. It stipulated the creation of the EEC and the European atomic energy community. The objective of the first organizations was the formation of a customs Union between countries, and the second – the promotion of cooperation in the nuclear field. Already in 1962 the EEC has established common prices for agricultural products. This was the first significant achievement of the community. In 1968, the EEC abolished tariffs on certain groups of goods.
