A principality of only 181 square miles, Andorra is located in the heart of the Pyrenees between France and Spain. It is a picturesque land of gorges and valleys drained by the Valira River. Historians speculate that the original inhabitants of Andorra were related to the Basque people of northern Spain. Other pre-Roman inhabitants included Celts, Iberians, and a small tribe called the Andosinos. Andorra was part of the Roman empire and when Rome fell it became a gateway for the barbaric tribes of Alans, Visgoths and Vandals into the Iberian peninsula. | A principality of only 181 square miles, Andorra is located in the heart of the Pyrenees between France and Spain.
