Features: Jordan is a magical country in the Middle East. Although it was established relatively late, it has significant influence, especially in Middle Eastern affairs, where it has played an active role. In the intense competition between global and regional powers, this small regional country has managed to turn danger into safety time and again, successfully surviving in the tight space. Jordan has harsh natural conditions, with 80% of its territory being desert, and it lacks resources. However, Jordan has made the most of its strengths, avoided weaknesses, leveraged its advantages, pursued policies that suit its national conditions, and firmly grasped remittances and tourism as its two major economic pillars. This has promoted the development of the national economy and gradually improved people's living standards, earning it considerable attention from the international community.
