We have created factsheets and video clips focusing on each of the 11 individuals who played a major role in the history of European integration. They were: Konrad Adenauer, Joseph Bech, Johan Willem Beyen, Winston Churchill, Alcide de Gasperi, Walter Hallstein, Sicco Mansholt, Jean Monnet, Robert Schuman, Paul-Henri Spaak, and Altiero Spinelli.

You can find these products on the Europa 'History' page which also gives a decade-by-decade account of the most important events in European history from 1945 onwards, and is updated on a monthly basis with the latest developments.

The A4 size factsheets in 22 languages can be printed directly from the web page. They can also be found as one publication in the series "The EU explained" (28 pages in A4, Catalogue number: NA-32-13-068-**-C)
