Through which treaties did the Federal Republic of Germany join with other states to form the European Economic Community?
- A through the 'Hamburg Treaties'
- B through the 'Treaties of Rome' ✓ Correct answer

- D through the 'London Treaties'
Explanation
The European Economic Community (EEC) was founded in 1957 by the Treaties of Rome, which established a common market among member states. These treaties are a cornerstone of European integration history.
Tips
- Link key European integration steps to their city names: EEC with Rome (1957), ECSC with Paris (1951), EU formation with Maastricht (1992), and institutional reforms with Lisbon/Amsterdam. Eliminate options that are not commonly associated with EU treaties or sound unfamiliar in EU context. Watch for the specific term “European Economic Community” as a clue pointing to the 1957 milestone.
