Eurozone refers to countries that have adopted euro as the common currency. It
includes 16 European Union members, 17 of their oversea territories, and 6 non
member states. Eight other members (not including Denmark, Sweden and United Kingdom which have chosen not to join) are still
waiting to join once they fulfil the strict entry criteria.
As of 2009, the 16 member states have a population of 329 million people. This number will grow to about 413 million by 2014.
By comparison, about 326 million people live in countries with U. S. dollar as the legal tender.
