Lebanon

The Lebanese Republic is an Arab country in the Middle East. It borders Israel to the south, Syria in the east and north, and the Mediterranean Sea forms its western border. The country's population is very diverse, and includes Shiite and Sunni Muslims, Maronite Christians, and Druze citizens. The official language is Arabic, and there are also many French speakers in the country. The Shia terrorist organization Hezbollah operates in Lebanon, led by Hassan Nasrallah.
