Profile summary of Israel

Israel is a small country located in the Middle East, on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by Lebanon to the north, Syria to the northeast, Jordan and the West Bank to the east, and Egypt and the Gaza Strip to the southwest.

Israel has a population of about 9 million people, and is a democratic and parliamentary republic. The official languages are Hebrew and Arabic, and the currency is the Israeli shekel.

Israel has a complex and often tumultuous history, and its modern political landscape is shaped by its position as a predominantly Jewish state in a region with a large Arab population. Relations between Israel and its neighbors have been strained at times, and the country has been involved in several wars and conflicts over the years.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been a major source of tension in the region for decades. Israel's occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, territories that are home to a large Palestinian population, has been a particularly contentious issue. Efforts to reach a peaceful resolution to the conflict have been ongoing for many years, but have so far been unsuccessful.

Israel is also involved in regional politics and has strong ties with the United States, which is a major ally and provider of military aid. Israel is a member of several international organizations, including the United Nations and the World Trade Organization.
