In order to understand the development of the Community and the development of the Union it is necessary to bear in mind several matters: (a) The nature of the Union and the Community. (b) The treaties setting up the Community and then the Union (included here are the founding treaties, the accession treaties, and the amending treaties). (c) The institutions of the Community and latterly the Union. (d) The sources, types and differing effects of Community law. (e) The effect of Community law or EC law on the English legal system. These areas will be considered next. 5.5.3 The nature of the European Community The Treaty of Rome 1957 states the main principle of the Community as the maintenance of economic and social progress, and naturally flowing out of this primary principle are a number of other principles aiming to unite Member States for the purpose of social, economic and legal union.

Part of the difficulty that can occur in attempting to understand the Community perhaps lies in the fact that it was never a specific place but a way of trading and of relating financially, legally, politically, socially and culturally.
