Why is Brussels the Capital of the EU? 🇪🇺 Officially, the EU has no capital. But Brussels became the de facto capital step by step: ✨ History: First EEC meeting in 1958, institutions gradually moved in. ⚖️ Neutrality: Not Paris, Berlin, or Rome. No big country got the advantage. 📍 Geography: Central location, easy to reach for diplomats and media. 🏛️ Institutions: Home to the Commission, Council, part of the Parliament, and NATO. 🌍 Symbolism: A city of compromise and cooperation, not national dominance. That’s why Brussels is Europe’s political heart. #Brussels #EuropeanUnion #EUpolitics #EuropeExplained #DidYouKnow #History #CapitalofEurope
