Actually the European Union in it's current form was established in 1993. It actually dates back to the 50s as the European Economic Community.
I think you're confusing the EU with the Euro, which is a currency some countries within the EU have adopted. Taxes are still different in countries that don't have the Euro. Though it is more straight forward than it used to be.
