Profile photo for Erik Hörnfeldt

It is a political Union guaranteeing the free exchange of people, goods, work and capital between 27 European countries.

It is not identical to Europe, a continent with approx 50 countries.

It is closely related to but not identical to The Schengen Area, 31 European countries that allow passport free travel amongst them.

It is also closely related but not identical to the Euro Zone, 20 countries that have a common currency.
