Mechanics of the Game
2. Each group must have the required object to trade lemon and
toothpicks.
1 bracelet = 3 toothpicks
1 necklace = 3 toothpicks
1 ring = 2 lemons
1 watch = 2 lemons
4. The four representatives can trade the lemons and toothpicks from
other groups.

enable to have a smooth and organize flow of the activity. Just like the
Regional Economic Integration, the agreements among four (4) groups to
select their representative to reduce, and ultimately remove, extra
movements (which serve as a barriers) to the flow of goods
(lemonsito&toothpick) between each other. Next is the trading, it helps
students to understand economic union in which, it involves the free flow
of goods (lemon&toothpick) and the adaptation of a common external
trade policy (which is, in 1 pair of earrings = 3 toothpicks, 1 bracelet = 3
toothpicks, 1 watch = 2 lemons and so on...) and it requires a common
currency (which are the jewelries). Each representative per group will
pick a paper inside the box to determine whether they are
partner/member or not. Now, in the next mechanics, the four
representatives can trade the lemons and toothpick among each other.
Remember that, there must be a required object equivalent to the lemons
and toothpick. In this case, it relates to the two levels of REI : Free trade
and a Custom union. Free trade, in a way that if two groups are member,
there are no subsidies (required object equivalent to the goods) between
them and all barriers are removed, but each group determines its own
external trade policy. (Like different object to be required for non-
members in able to get the goods) Custom union, barriers and subsidies
among members are also removed and have a common external trade
policy for non-members. (Like the same object to be required for non-
members) Now, it's time to build the lemonsito tower. After building it,
each group should coordinate their partners to combine their tower.
Each group must have a coordination and unity in order to build the
highest tower. This case relates to the Common Market, it is similar to
the Custom Union except that a common market also allows factors of
production to move freely between the countries. So, it allows the groups
to coordinate freely because there is no restriction between member
groups.

agreements. The greater the number of countries involved, the more
perspective that must be reconciled, and the harder it will be to reach
agreement.

where the EU gains to its economics from the common currency.
