@Andorra
Introduction Andorra
Background:
For 715 years, from 1278 to 1993, Andorrans lived under a unique
co-principality, ruled by the French chief of state and the Spanish
bishop of Urgel. In 1993, this feudal system was modified with the
titular heads of state retained, but the government transformed into
a parliamentary democracy. Long isolated and impoverished,
mountainous Andorra achieved considerable prosperity since World War
II through its tourist industry. Many immigrants (legal and illegal)
are attracted to the thriving economy with its lack of income taxes.
Geography Andorra
Location:
Southwestern Europe, between France
