Formerly established as the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in 1963 and renamed the African Union (AU) in 2002
The African Union (AU) is a regional international organization consisting of 55 African member states that promote political, economic, and military integration of the African continent to reduce poverty and end wars. Its forerunner was the Organization of African Unity (OAU), established in 1963. In 2018, the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) was created. If all member states finish signing onto the agreement, it will create a large-scale free trade market with a population of 1.3 billion and a value of US$3.4 trillion.
