Having lived in Europe for most of my life, EU is not a country, rather a collection of countries. I'm not sure if it is just standard practice to list the European country under "EU", but wouldn't it be better to have "ES" for Espania?
In this context, "EU" means "multinational network in the RIPE region". It's not necessarily confined to actual EU countries, nor does it mean "all of the EU" - just "more than one country so you can't easily tack a single country code on it". This definition isn't perfect, but does the job...
