HIPPOCRENE BOOKS
1. Juni 2004 - kartoniert - 348 Seiten
This unique book examines the history, culture, and inner workings of the seven smallest independent countries in Europe. These are among the oldest lands in Europe and, despite their diversity, they have much in common. Most have relatively high per capita incomes and life expectancies, and relatively low unemployment. This narrative first presents the many unique issues that confront small countries, including maintaining their independence, economic viability, native languages, and forms of government. The second part of the book describes each microstate in turn, showing how each one has met these challenges and adapted over time. These concise and engaging histories contain cultural information on subjects including the arts, gastronomy, and popular tourist sites.
