By working together, neighboring,countries can make a much bigger difference than each country could, acting on its own.,Finally, countries which do a lot of trade together come closer together in other ways. People move between,the member countries and learn to understand and accept any differences in culture. Most difficulties,between nations which cause unfriendly relations are due to lack of information about each other.
