There are at present 15members. Another 10 (i think?) are being added in 2004, and then two more in 2006 ( i think?)...either way, 15 at present with a mention of an expansion to Eastern Europe should be sufficient.

The original 6:

acording to "Economics Update" which is edited by Tim Dixon, from 2004 10 countries will join the EU to make it 25 from the current 15 countries thatt are already there. The 10 countries are:

Poland
Czech Republic
Hungary
Estonia
Latvia
Lithuania
Slovakia
Slovenia
Cyprus
Malta

By adding these countries a total of 75 million people will join the EU population and take the overall total to 450 million, which is well ahead of the 401 million of NAFTA.
