World where 10% of the country has been declared world heritage sites by UNESCO they are the only country in the world to have Catalan as an official language the proximity to France and Spain has also meant people of Andor speak Spanish and French fluently as well one of the most surprising facts is

That the country has never had an army or Ministry for defense instead and only in exceptional circumstances a centuries old tradition means the summoning of the summit a popular military formed by the heads of all the andoran households between the ages of 21 and 60 now let’s get into Spain Barcelona is
