The Treaty on European Union, commonly known as the Maastricht Treaty, is the foundation treaty of the European Union.
Concluded in 1992 between the then-twelve member states of the European Communities, it announced “a new stage in the process of European integration” chiefly in provisions for a shared European citizenship, for the eventual introduction of a single currency.
It took effect on this day in 1993.

On this day on 2011, the global population of humans reached seven billion. This day is now recognized by the United Nations as the Day of Seven Billion.
The 15 November 2022 was designated by the United Nations as the approximate day when the world population reached eight billion people.
