About Andorra
Andorra, a tiny, mountainous nation in western Europe, is an self-governing territory ruled by a prince. This isolated rural region was almost unknown to the outside world until the middle of the twentieth century. Since then, Andorra has grown to be a popular tourist site for vacationers from Spain, France, and other European countries.
Since the late thirteenth century, Andorra has been under joint French and Spanish rule. France's leaders (including all its presidents since 1870) have had the title of Prince of Andorra.
Andorra became a parliamentary democracy in 1993, when it adopted its first constitution. It retained the nation's relationship to its French and Spanish princes but limited their powers. Andorra became a member of the United Nations in July 1993.
