Quiz about the Principality of Andorra. For Around The World.
Andorra is the sixth smallest country in Europe; the sixteenth smallest in the world. It is also one of the safest places in the world to live, with almost zero car theft, pick pocketing, and disorderly conduct from year to year. It is also believed to be the fourteenth oldest country in the world. Civilisation can be traced to before 9,500BC. Wow.

Located high in the Pyrenees of South Western, Europe, it has become a tourist hotspot, with many great ski destinations.

Here is my quiz. I hope you enjoy it.
