I was curious so here are some population figures (from wikipedia)
Eurozone: 332,839,084
EU: 503,492,041
Europe: 739,165,030
So 45% of Europeans (66% of EU citizens) are in the Eurozone.
- personlurking 14y agoHere's a great lil' venn diagram of all the European bodies http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/84/Supranational_European_Bodies.png http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/84/Supranati...
- ColinWright 14y agoOne of my bugbears, but to be completely accurate this is an Euler Diagram, not a Venn Diagram. Technically, a Venn Diagram has to have all possible intersections represented. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_diagram http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_diagram http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagram http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagram http://blog.stevemould.com/venn-vs-euler-diagrams/ http://blog.stevemould.com/venn-vs-euler-diagrams/
- jonascopenhagen 14y agoFor those who don't know, the Eurozone is basically those 17 EU member states who use the Euro as their currency. The remaining 10 members of the EU use their own national currency.
- rmc 14y agoFun fact: There are countries outside the EU that use the Euro, but Eurozone (or Euro area) only includes EU. (FTR: Kosovo and Montenegro use the Euro, aswell as some microstates like Monaco and Vatican City)
- VeejayRampay 14y agoCan't stress enough that the 740 million figures includes Russia and Kazakhstan in the bunch. Two countries that are more Asian than they are European.
- arethuza 14y agoThat is based on the European populations of those countries - not their entire populations!!
