NAFTA and the EU

Paper Summary:

This seven page undergraduate paper examines why geographical proximity is an important factor in the creation of trading blocs such as NAFTA and the EU. In part because of the geographical proximity of the member states of the European Union, the EU has served as a model for international political and economic integration, for the EU has been able to transform the European continent from a diverse, complicated, and myriad conglomeration of independent nations and markets into a unified economic and trade entity which has demonstrated far more success than most experts predicted when the EU was first established.
