Why the EU will continue to be a pivotal organization for Germany in the 21st century

  1. The EU unites Germany in that they have other countries to unite with.
  2. The EU is good for Germany in that it gives Germany something to belong to that is good since they have been looked down upon during the world wars.
  3. In the EU the German population does not worry about tariffs or trade wars.  This benefits Germany buy letting them sell their goods at whatever price they want.
  4. The EU allows people from other countries to live in other EU countries freely. This is beneficial for Germany because they have the opportunity to have a larger population.
  5. The EU has people pay taxes in the country that they work, so all the non Germans working in Germany half to pay their taxes to Germany.
  6. If Germany would ever become poor or cannot support itself the EU can help support them.
  7. The EU is a bis sponsor of protecting the environment. Germany benefits from this because their environment then stays clean and protected.
  8. Renewable resources are important in the EU which benefits Germany because they are big into protecting their enivronment.
  9. The EU unites countries so if Germany ever wanted to go off the path and do something globally wrong the EU would stop them, which is good since WWII was not good for Germany.
  10. The EU is a marketplace for other countries to buy German goods which will lead to Germany being very prosperous.
  11. The EU's currency is the Euro. Germany also uses the Euro which allows the Germans to spend their money in other EU countries freely without having to switch currencies.
  12. EU allows Germany to remain a global competitor with the rest of the world.
