Abstract
Europe has witnessed a brilliant era after the second World War; an era which is characterized with peace, development and changes in the state function. Today, Europe has reached to a level of peace and integration that other regions of the world see this region as a pattern and typical example, and try to benefit from the EU experiences. Hence, investigation of this experience can be an effective step in exploring the pattern of peace building in regional level with the promise that the world witness more peaceful regions around the world which can pave the way for living in a more peaceful world. This article using descriptive-analytic method discussed three issues: first: war, and its negative consequences, threat, the necessity of security, the role of peace in development and ideas are among the most important factors in the causes of the establishment of peace in EU region; second: the process of peace establishment in EU region has followed the following stages: the formation of peace idea; flourish of peace idea; intention to build peace and establishment of peace; flourish of settled peace and keep and dynamize peace; third: European peace is the result of regional integration which is caused new regional identity and regional security complex to be formed.
