Explanation
Euro is the official money used in many countries of Europe. Its symbol is (€), and it makes trade and travel easier between countries in the European Union. Instead of each country using its own money, many agreed to use the euro for unity and ease. For example, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy use the euro, but some countries like the UK use their own currency. A euro coin or note works the same way as rupees, dollars, or pounds, helping people buy goods and services.
