Lebanon is a small, mountainous country in the Middle East. After independence in 1943, Lebanon prospered as a banking, resort, and university center. It is estimated that two-thirds of the resident population are Muslim, with the rest being Christian. Lebanon is one of the most populated countries in its archeological sites, in the world! Byblos (city in Lebanon) is the oldest, continuously living city. Cedars are traditionally connected with Lebanon. This land is really amazing! Lebanon is the country that has the most books written about it!
