Question 2 • CMS 2026-2027 Founding Principles of the US and NC: Civic Literacy CREDIT RECOVERY

Which best describes the European Union?

Answer
A
an economic policy that places tariffs on goods entering Europe
B
a trade agreement that unites all European countries with a single trading goal
C
a trade agreement responsible for one of the world’s largest economies
D
an economic policy that lowers tariffs on goods sent from Europe to the United States

Explanation

The European Union is a political and economic union whose members coordinate policies and participate in a shared single market. Together, its member countries make up one of the world’s largest economies, so choice B is the best description. It is not simply a tariff policy, and it does not include every country in Europe.
