Andorra
Andorra, a small state in the eastern Pyrenees between Spain and France. The poor soil allows only sheep, cattle and horse breeding, so that today trade and tourism are the main sources of income.
History: Andorra is an independent parliamentary principality that is formally subject to the sovereignty of the French President and the Spanish Bishop von Urgel (both of which, however, only have a purely representative function). France represents the country’s foreign policy interests. Andorra joined the UN in 1993 and the Council of Europe in 1994.
Around 22,500 people live in the capital of the Principality, Andorra la Vella.
Geography
Location
Andorra lies between Spain and France, embedded in a ring of high mountain ranges (including the Vall del Madriu-Perafita-Claror mountain landscape, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and covers around 10% of the country’s area).
The highest point is the Coma Pedrosa with 2,946 m above sea level. Coming from high-altitude glacial valleys with lakes and alpine meadows, the source streams of the Valira unite in the Andorra la Vella valley basin, which is 800–1,100 m above sea level.
The Valira valley enables the connection to the Spanish Segretal and the city of Seu d’Urgell; the road to the French Ariègetal overcomes the Pyrenees main ridge in the 2,407 m high pass Port d’Envalira (the highest pass road in the Pyrenees).
Climate
The climate is alpine; warm summers with temperatures up to 30 ° C (average temperature in July 19 ° C) and long snowy winters (average temperature in January + 2 ° C), which make the passes impassable from November to May. The rainfall (886 mm in Les Escaldes) is evenly distributed over the year.
