The Treaty of Rome, signed by France, West Germany, Italy and Benelux (Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg) on March 25, 1957, established the European Economic Community (EEC), an independent supranational economic organization, and came into force on 1 January 1958. The treaty's original full name was the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, later renamed by the Treaty of Maastricht to Treaty establishing the European Community (TEC). On the European summit of June 22 and 23, 2007, it was agreed that both the Treaty on European Union and the Treaty establishing the European Community will be amended by a new Treaty of Lisbon to have most provisions of the European Constitution included. The Treaty establishing the European Community will be renamed once again in this process, this time to Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU).[1] Another treaty was signed the same day establishing the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom), which came into effect on the same day as the Treaty of Rome, 1 January 1958. Both treaties, in conjunction with the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community (the Treaty of Paris, which expired in 2001-2002), have become known as the Treaties of Rome.
