Israel
The State of Israel is a country in the Middle East on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea. It borders with Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and the territory of the West Bank of the Jordan River, with Egypt and the Gaza Strip. The capital is Jerusalem. Unitary state, democratic parliamentary republic. The formal head of state is the president, but his duties are mostly ceremonial. The head of government is the prime minister.
Climate. The country has several climatic zones. And the weather conditions in different parts of the country can differ from each other even at the same time. In general, the country has a Mediterranean climate. However, the proximity of the sea on the one hand, and the desert on the other, create the same series of diverse zones that differ from the average.
Population. The approximate population for 2022 is 9 023 174 people.
Language. The official language is Hebrew, the second main language is Arabic - it has a special status. Now many road signs and signs are written in three languages: Hebrew, Arabic and English, and on the streets you can hear speech in different languages: French, German, Georgian, Russian, English.
Today, Israel is a state with a strong and developed economy, which plays a large role in the economy of many countries in Southwest Asia. The country, which does not own rich natural resources, has developed seawater desalination technologies, and is also one of the leaders in the use of solar energy per capita. It is one of the most developed countries in Southwest Asia in terms of economic and industrial development.
Israel has one of the best medicine in the world, guaranteeing equal opportunities for medical services to all citizens. This right is enshrined in law. There is a high level of training of doctors, diagnostics, and all clinics are equipped with the most modern equipment. Here, doctors even take on cases that have been abandoned by many countries. Being almost in the desert, the country not only feeds itself, but also exports vegetables and fruits all over the world, and the country's shale oil reserves are comparable to the proven oil reserves in Saudi Arabia.
Israel is the center of spirituality and mystery. Throughout the centuries, the Holy Land has attracted here not only pilgrims, but also all people from all over the world. As a Jewish state, Israel is a democratic and multinational country where all ethnic groups, regardless of religion, have the same rights and obligations. We can say that in the country even the air is saturated with religious shrines. And there are historical sights and architectural monuments in every city of this country.
Israel is a combination of all the differences that are possible. The capital Jerusalem is the most ancient city with a long history, as if carved from stone - a sacred place for Christians, Jews and Muslims. It is here that the main shrines are located: the Church of the Holy Sepulcher and the Wailing Wall. This city brought together different cultures and became a place of pilgrimage. Tel Aviv is the secular capital of the country, with the rhythm of a big city that does not stop even at night, with a modern infrastructure, with endless nightclubs and restaurants.
Israel is a garden, where the Dead Sea is located in the middle of the desert, the concentration of salt and minerals in it is many times higher than the concentration in other seas. Israel is all different: it is a combination of oriental bazaars with European skyscrapers, a cool north with ski resorts with a lifeless desert, monasteries cut into the rocks with the green slopes of the Golan Heights. You need to live here to see everything with your own eyes, because the best countries are born at the junction of such differences that are only possible.
