Gibraltar is a British overseas territory on the southern end of the Iberian Peninsula on the Strait of Gibralter. The northern border is shared with Spain. Gibraltar, one of the most densely-populated territories in the world, has a population of about 29,396 (July 2017).
Gibraltar is self-governing with an elected parliament. The head of state is the monarch of the United Kingdom, who is represented by an appointed governor general. The head of government is a chief minister.
For many years, Spain, France and Britain claimed and fought for possession of Gibralter. In the 1950s, Franco renewed Spain’s claim to Gibraltar. However, in the GIbraltar sovereignty referendum of 1967, Gibraltarians voted overwhelmingly to remain with Britain. To retaliate, Spain closed the border with Gibraltar and severed all communications. The border was completely reopened in 1985. In another referendum in 2002, Gibraltar citizens again voted overwhelmingly to remain with Britain.
Gibraltar is a popular tourist destination. Travellers to Gibraltar can enjoy seeing the Barbary Macaques, St. Michael’s Cave, lovely beaches, fortresses and castles.
