Andorra has no standing army but signed treaties with Spain and France for its protection. Its small volunteer army is purely ceremonial in function. The paramilitary GIPA (trained in counter-terrorism and hostage management) is part of the national police. Defense assistance is provided by France and Spain under an informal agreement between the three countries.

dagur7 No I live in Newfoundland, which was an independent nation, and by the same definition would have been considered a Micronation prior to confederation with Canada in 1949 (awful mistake that was). Newfoundland is about the same size as Iceland and Labrador is a vast area roughly the size of Italy, with 325,000 people all combined at the time, and only 500,000 now. So I do have some say in that Newfoundland and Labrador would not have been a micronation and Iceland would not either. But my desire not to want to be called a Micronation stems from the bad prejudices Canadians have against Newfoundlanders too, so I'm marginally more bitter than an Icelander.

Haha, I just came from reading the wikipedia on Andorra and I guess I'm not the only one who finds them absolutely adorable. Having been forgotten in the Versailles treaty after WW1, they technically remained at war with Germany until the fifties when they officially declared peace. Having a military run on a defense budget where it's unusually high if it has 4.90 dollars for one year, a military of only 12 professional permanent personal. Having a system where the bigger problems are to be handled by "able-bodied men" which would happen in case of natural disasters, state of emergencies, crisis, or war. 85,000 population, with 10.2 million annual tourists. This country is so cute!

Okay so I live 50km away from Andorra and 20km away from La Tour de Carol train station (I use the R3 Rodalies from RENFE). -La Tour de Carol is a village on its own. The train that goes there comes from L'Hospitalet de Llobregat (Barcelona) and is the R3 from Rodalies. It's 70km away from La Seu d'Urgell (Spanish entrance to Andorra). -L'Hospitalet-près-l'Andorre is a different village with a different station. The train that stops there comes from somewhere in France (I have no idea from where, but I suppose it comes from Toulouse?). Both villages are 30 minutes apart by train. -Andorra has had an airport since the 80s. It didn't, however, have commercial flights until this year so yes, until now the closest actual airports are Girona's (just realized you didn't put that one), Toulouse's and BCN's. Random fact: You can drive from border to border (north to south) in 2 hours by car. Another random fact that no one will care about: I personally know the co-prince of Andorra and have talked to him several times. It was actually him who did my Confirmation (Christian sacrament) xD

Andorra is a microstate, not a micronation. Micronations include countries like Sealand which claim to be independent nations but are not officially recognized by world governments or major international organizations (but if they have had wars over independence like Somaliland or Kosovo, they don't count). Also, microstates are based on area, and not population, so Iceland and Cyprus don't count.

It's a great country to go skiing and then go downtown Andorra la Vella to shop or even go to Caldea and have a nice time at their Spa + Cool swimming pools. And when you go back home, you fill up the gas tank cheaper than in my country and buy alcohol and tobacco again, cheaper.

Catalan is a romance language, full stop. It is not somehow related to Spanish nor French. It just is as it is and evolved parallely from vulgar Latin as Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian did. It was very similar to Occitan, a language once spoken in the southern part of France, but Napoleon only wanted French language in France, so he banned it from school and society and it disappeared.

+brtmn Occitan still exists. In fact, it is one of the three official languages in Catalonia and currently being spoken by thousands of people in France. Even though, in France it is not an official language and the french government doesn't work for the Occitan so in France people will tend to use more French, but in Catalonia the Occitan language it will never disappear.

Andorra *is not* a micronation. "Micronation" means you are a self-declared country with no outside diplomatic recognition. Better known examples of this would be Sealand, Seborgia, Hutt River, Westarctica, Molossia, etc. Size is irrelevant. While most "micronations" are in fact, small by coincidence, some have rather sizable territorial claims, e.g. Westarctica.

While studying in Spain, we went a couple of times to Andorra. I must say a couple of things about what I saw. The country is BEAUTIFUL. It's literally inside the mountains of the Pyrenees and the landscape is gorgeous. However, the people living there just ruin the latter beauty due to their ego. They are rude and think they're superior to others. For instance, something I noticed is they don't stop when they see that there's someone crossing the street. Moreover, when you enter in a shop, they don't smile at you nor greet you. Besides, for them, even if they speak Catalan, they don't call their language as so. They call it "Andorran" just to piss the Catalans out. So, yeah. Anyways, I'm not trying to offend anyone, but please, dear citizens of Andorra, have some sympathy towards others from time to time. Smile and be nice! Thank you. And Georgraphy Now: You are fucking awesome! Keep up the GREAT work!

Carmen Mas Franco The OP gave their opinion as an OUTSIDER how they treat foreigners- in my opinion very convincing in stating their case. You as an Andorran or as a Catalan who speaks the language have absolutely no authority about saying how you treat (or are treated if you speak the same language) non-Catalan speakers. Compared to most of the world Europeans- the French and Spanish among the worst- are extremely ignorant and arrogant, especially in the service industry. This can be quite a shock to people like the Americans where people are very friendly and in the service industry live off tips and are therefore extremely attentive to customers.

Every time we had vacation in Barcelona, we were going to Andorra and that is what I lived there. FYI, I'm a Canadian. If I had read a critique over my country, I wouldn't go apewall on the OP, but rather apologize for their misfortune and hopefully wish them to not be discouraged over the latter and enjoy Canada next time they'll visit. Be kind to one another and take criticism maturely.
