Extractions: A micro-state adjusts to Europe's wider perspective A ndorra is faced with the greatest challenge of its history: making the transition from an ancient system, including a foreign policy strategy based on neutrality combined with bilateral relations with France and Spain, to an active political and economic presence in Europe and farther afield. However the government plays its hand now will affect its role in Europe for decades to come. "The most fundamental change that has come along with Andorra's new constitution is its international presence," Minister of Foreign Affairs Albert Pintat said. "Our principality is one of few politically stable entities, and has not been affected by international affairs since its creation over 700 years ago." Now Andorra has a sit in the United Nations, belongs to the European Council and is applying for membership of the World Trade Organization. "Our international commitments have prompted us to review not only the way we see ourselves but also the way the world sees Andorra," Pintat said.

Extractions: Country List World Factbook Home The World Factbook Andorra Introduction Andorra Background: For 715 years, from 1278 to 1993, Andorrans lived under a unique co-principality, ruled by French and Spanish leaders (from 1607 onward, the French chief of state and the Spanish bishop of Urgel). In 1993, this feudal system was modified with the titular heads of state retained, but the government transformed into a parliamentary democracy. Long isolated and impoverished, mountainous Andorra achieved considerable prosperity since World War II through its tourist industry. Many immigrants (legal and illegal) are attracted to the thriving economy with its lack of income taxes.

Extractions: The Constitution provides for freedom of religion, and the Government generally respects this right in practice. There is no state religion; however, the Constitution acknowledges a special relationship with the Roman Catholic Church, which receives some privileges not available to other faiths. There was no change in the status of respect for religious freedom during the period covered by this report, and government policy continued to contribute to the generally free practice of religion. The generally amicable relationship among religions in society contributed to religious freedom. The U.S. Government discusses religious freedom issues with the Government as part of its overall policy to promote human rights. Section I. Religious Demography The country has an area of 180.7 square miles, and a population of 71,670. Very few official statistics are available relative to religion; however, traditionally approximately 90 percent of the population is Roman Catholic. The population consists largely of immigrants, with full citizens representing less than 38 percent of the total. The immigrants, who primarily are from Spain, Portugal, and France, also largely are Roman Catholic. It is estimated that, of the Catholic population, about half are active church attendees. Other religious groups include Muslims (who predominantly are represented among the estimated 2,000 North African immigrants and are split between two groups, one more fundamentalist), Anglican, Hinduism, the New Apostolic Church; the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons); several Protestant denominations, including the Anglican Church; the Reunification Church; and Jehovah's Witnesses.

The mainstay of the economy is tourism. An estimated 10 million people visit each year, drawn by the winter sports, summer climate and duty-free goods. The banking sector also enjoys a tax-haven status. OVERVIEW FACTS LEADERS MEDIA For more than 700 years Andorra has been ruled jointly by the leader of France and the Spanish Bishop of Urgel. The first Andorran Constitution was passed in 1993, establishing a parliamentary co-principality. The co-princes remain Andorra's heads of state but the roles are largely honorary. FACTS
