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 fierce competition between global and regional powers, this small country in the region has managed to turn crises into opportunities and successfully survive in the tight space. Jordan has harsh natural conditions, with 80% of its territory being desert, and it is resource-poor. However, Jordan has leveraged its strengths, avoided weaknesses, and developed policies that suit its national conditions. It has firmly grasped remittances and tourism as its two major economic pillars, promoting the development of the national economy and gradually improving people's living standards, attracting significant attention from the international community. This book mainly introduces Jordan's territory and people; history; politics; economy; military; education, science and technology, culture, health, and news; as well as foreign relations.
