WHERE IN THE WORLD?
This European country is bordered by six states, and a sea to the north. It is the ninth largest country in Europe and the 69th largest in the world, with a population of 38 million. More than six million of its citizens were killed in the Second World War, and it
suffered widespread destruction. Despite this, it managed to preserve much of its cultural wealth, and has 14 heritage sites on the Unesco World Heritage list. It has 70 mountains and a desert in the south, which is one of only five natural deserts in Europe.
