Detailed explanation-1: -The EU was founded on a number of treaties, and its expansion and development has been underpinned by the agreement of treaties between the member states. The European Charter of Fundamental Rights has the same legal value as the treaties. Regulations are laws that apply to all member states.
Detailed explanation-2: -Policy made at the EU level generally applies to all 28 Member States of the EU, unless any have negotiated ‘opt outs’ or exemptions, which mean that they do not have to implement certain policies, or particular clauses in legislation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The European Union is based on the rule of law. This means that every action taken by the EU is founded on treaties that have been approved voluntarily and democratically by all EU member countries. For example, if a policy area is not cited in a treaty, the Commission cannot propose a law in that area.
Detailed explanation-4: -The European Communities, destined to become the European Union we all know today, were established back in 1957 in Rome. Since, the European Union has adopted more than 100 000 (one hundred thousand) legislative acts.
