Why was the EU created? The EU was originally created with the aim of ending the frequent and bloody wars between neighbours, which culminated in the Second World War. The Schuman Declaration, which encouraged the establishment of the European Coal and Steel Community, laid the foundation for the European Union as we know it today. The Decleration proposed the creation of a common market in coal and steel between the European states in order to make war between them unthinkable as coal and steel were necessary ingredients to make war.
