About country

Andorra is a landlocked microstate nestled in the eastern Pyrenees, bordering France and Spain. Historically, its origins are traced back to Charlemagne, with governance evolving through various counts and the Diocese of Urgell. The unique co-principality system, established in 1278, grants shared rule to the Bishop of Urgell and the President of France. Tourism is a cornerstone of the Andorran economy, attracting visitors with its mountainous terrain and duty-free shopping. The country boasts a high quality of life and a strong emphasis on preserving its Catalan culture and language.
