Lebanon






Lebanon is an ancient country it was named the land of milk and honey in the bible but in the modern time is called the Paris of the east. Some of the famous people in the world are from Lebanon or half from Lebanon like the famous singer Shakira. It has a great geographic location between five of its neighbors. The surrounding countries are Israel, Jordan, Turkey and Cyprus.



Lebanon faced a lot of political problems in the last few decades. Some of the things like Christians holding the balance of power and members of radical Christian group killed a bus full of Palestinians. As a result sconces of revenge killing and then violence started spiriting between the Lebanese. Then civil war started Lebanon didn’t get a chance to recover Israeli started another war. In 1989 Lebanon had a peace deal with Israeli. The lost was huge almost 300,000 wounded people and the life lost was between 150,000 and 200,000. The economy of Lebanon was destroyed in these two wars.




Lebanon started healing its wounds almost recovered the tragedy. Nowadays the cities become one of the modern cities in the world. The buildings covered the hills. The raises between the Lebanese disappeared. Beirut has a great night life for a country that suffered all of these things. On the other hand the pollution is very high because the rate of cares is too high. The electricity pills and phones pills are too expensive. Also the rate of unemployment people is high.



In the future Lebanon may change and solve its problems any thing could happen another war could start but we hope the best for Lebanon.
