[00:03.61]between the people of Europe.
[00:05.59]All Euro notes show the European flag
[00:07.84]and a map of Europe.
[00:09.64]The 12 stars on the European flag
[00:12.01]represent the 12 countries
[00:13.56]within the European Union,including Austria,
[00:15.86]Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,
[00:18.88]Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,
[00:20.81]the Nether lands, Portugal, and Spain.
[00:23.61]The coins were easier to design.
[00:25.76]Each country was allowed to design their
[00:27.44]own Euro coins which could be used
[00:29.88]in any of the participating countries.
[00:32.22]For example,
[00:33.28]Spain put one of their famous writers,
[00:35.56]called Cervantes, on one of their coins
[00:38.56]and Austria made a coin
[00:40.23]with Mozart's face on it.
