[Automatic translation follows] The European Union (EU) is an association of twenty-eight European states which delegate or transfer by treaty the exercise of certain powers to common bodies. It covers a territory of 4,493,712 km24, has a population of over 507 million and is the world's leading economic power.
The European Union has been governed by the Treaty of Maastricht and the Treaty of Rome, in their current versions, since 1 December 2009 and the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon.
Its institutional structure is partly supranational, partly intergovernmental: the European Parliament is elected by direct universal suffrage, while the European Council and the Council of Ministers are composed of representatives of the Member States; the European Commission is elected by the Parliament on a proposal from the European Council. The Court of Justice is responsible for ensuring the application of EU law.
