Why do European Countries want to join the EU?

The EU was created as a union of free countries with the basic idea to put an end to wars, which have been ripping the continent apart for centuries, and to secure a safe and quality life for its inhabitants.until this very day , The European union is progressing and developing as well as expanding in size. Being a part of the EU means:

1. Access to a large and competitive market, where the same rules apply : This is especially important for smaller countries whose internal market is naturally more limited. On the other hand there are standards to guarantee the quality and safety of the goods.rules reduce the risk of venturing into a new market and enhance trade enormously. This also encourages countries to collaborate to produce more.

2.  Enhancing every aspect of Life : business, Justice System and standard of living.

3. An emphasis on the social sphere : In terms of people's lives this results, among other things, into a commonly accepted number of working hours for the week, number of minimal annual leave, social security and pension rules, maternity leave and child care rules

4. An emphasis on education and scientific research : Scientific research is something, which requires a powerful economy and substantial financial resources. The EU provides the money and time and makes it accessible to all the countries in the EU.

 5. Solidarity : This is a major principle, which makes every member of the EU much stronger in every aspect. This bonds EU members together and creates a feeling of stability and safety. Therefore, it is important that countries joining the EU have no unresolved problems with other EU member states.

With all these perks, All countries are fighting to join the EU because it provides higher standards of living and  diversity and unity. IT is much better for every business and economy to be part of something bigger.
