The European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) was the first step towards the creation of the European Economic Community (EEC) and eventually the European Union (EU). It was established in 1951 and aimed to pool the coal and steel resources of six European countries (France, West Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands) to promote economic cooperation and prevent future wars. The success of the ECSC led to the signing of the Treaty of Rome in 1957, which established the EEC, and ultimately to the formation of the EU in 1993.
