Links to Tunisia Tunisia : Location, Population, Religion, Membership, Currency Official Name: Republic of Tunisia Location: Situated on the North African coast of the Mediterranean Sea between Algeria and Libya and just south of Italy, Tunisia represents an intriguing cross-cultural blend of Europe and Africa. Tunisia is situated on the fringe of the Sahara, and while it has an arid land it is not a stereotypically desert country. Area: The total area of Tunisia is 164,418 sq km (63,482 sq mi). Capital: The capital and largest city of Tunisia is Tunis (1.7 million). Language: Arabic , is the official language, and while some businessmen speak English, Italian or German, French is usually the language of commerce. French is less apt to be understood in the far south. English and German are also spoken in major cities. Religion: Islam is the state religion and allmost all inhabitants are Moslems, but there are small numbers of Roman Catholics, Jews, Greek Orthodox, and Protestants. Population: Tunisia has a population (1997 estimate) of 9,245,284, yielding an average population density of 56 persons per sq km (146 per sq mi). About three-quarters of the population lived in the coastal region. The arid central and southern parts make up 70 percent of the total land area, but contain less than 30 percent of the population. Throughout history, many peoples, including Romans, Vandals, black Africans, and Arabs, have invaded or settled in the region that is now Tunisia. Tunisians, however, are essentially of Berber stock, although fewer than 2 percent speak the Berber language. As a result of Arabization, Arabic has become the language of the Tunisian people, who have come to regard themselves as Arabs.

Tunis is the capital. The Atlas Mountains in the north form a dry plateau that merges with fertile plains near the coast; in the south, below the Chott Djerid and other salt lakes, stretches the Sahara desert. The irregular coastline has several fine harbors. Agriculture, mining, energy, tourism, and manufacturing are all important to the economy. Wheat, barley, grapes, olives, sugar beets, citrus fruits, and dates are the leading crops, and petroleum and phosphates are the principal minerals. Manufactured goods include textiles, steel, and processed food. The population is largely Berber and Arab, and Islam is the dominant religion. Arabic is the official language, although French is widely spoken. History Used by permission of Columbia University Press.

Africa /Tunisia TUNISIA History and Government History: Modern-day Tunisia was the centre of the Carthaginian civilisation, which challenged the dominance of both the Greek and Roman empires in the Mediterranean between the 6th and 1st centuries BC; Carthage itself was approximately 16km (10 miles) north of the present capital, Tunis. During the colonial era, Tunisia was ruled by a hereditary monarchy, until the French made the country a protectorate in 1883. Nationalist pressure for independence began in 1934, with the formation of the Néo-Destour (New Constitution) Party (NDP) under the leadership of Habib Bourguiba. Internal self-government was granted in 1955; independence as a constitutional monarchy under the Bey of Tunis came a year later. In 1957, the Bey was overthrown and a republic proclaimed, with Bourguiba as president. Despite independence, the French insisted on holding onto a naval base at Bizerta, on the northern coast. This was lost in 1963, after a naval blockade by the Tunisians and several months of heavy fighting. The ruling

Africa /Tunisia TUNISIA Overview ‘Roman remains, French sophistication, yet totally Tunisian’ For such a tiny country – the smallest in North Africa – Tunisia packs a lot in. It is a truly kaleidoscopic nation, ranging from Mediterranean beaches to the Sahara desert, from ancient souks to Star Wars film sets. This Arab-Berber nation is one of the most liberal in the Islamic world; alcohol is freely available and women need not feel intimidated. The capital, Tunis, reflects the country’s diversity. Its French colonial past has a far-reaching influence (it only gained independence in 1956), most obviously in its cuisine that blends sophisticated French with Arab spice. Older history is evident in the remains of what was Roman Carthage, while the Roman ruins at Dougga and El Jem are some of the finest in Africa. Despite its location, edging the Sahara, Tunisia is a surprisingly fertile land. It has six National Parks; that around Lac Ichkeul is one of only two UNESCO-protected Biosphere Reserves in the world. If you’re feeling energetic, the view from the near-deserted village of Takrouna over the mountainous north is stunning. Alternatively, visit a central desert oasis like Zaafrane, Tozeur or Kebili with its hot pools. Finally, when you tire of culture, history and nature, simply lie on the beach and relax at some point along its 1400km (875 miles) stretch of Mediterranean coastline.

These Jews first settled on the island of Djerba off Tunisia's southeast coast. Other settlements eventually developed on the mainland. By the time of Roman rule, thriving Jewish communities existed throughout Tunisia and on Djerba. Djerba today is home to a strong and vibrant Jewish community, proud of its distinctive history and traditions. Although the past decade has seen an increasing number of Djerban Jews move north to Tunis for economic reasons, the island continues to contain Tunisia’s largest concentration of Jews. search this site site index legal

The most Tunisian Towns are old Phoenician counters, heritages of Greek or Roman towns, or Arab medinas as well. The Amphitheaters, thermae, odeums, Coliseums, witness the glory of an emperor and of a civilization. But beyond the triumph of the ancient times, the Arab architects had known how to show the genius of their arts: The great mosque of Kairouan is a splendid example of this art. Utique would be the most ancient counter, dating from the 1.100 before J.C, it became later a roman city. We acknowledge its thermae with mosaic floor. The Dougga town still rises proudly on its hill. Around the temple erected in honor of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva lies down the forum, with its Punic mausoleum and further its thermae, it's a theatre of 3.500 seat which relives every summer. As for El Jem Coliseum, it's quite as good as the Rome one: Where 35.000 spectators can take seats. The mosaic of the palace are dedicated to Dyonisos or Bacchus.

Site Map History of Tunisia in Ottoman Times Officially Republic of Tunisia was a member of Ottoman Empire since 16th century until 1830's. This country of North Africa , Tunisia is strategically important in the Mediterranean region, where its location and ease of access have made it vulnerable to virtually every historical influence in the area. It is bounded by Algeria to the west and southwest, Libya to the southeast, and the Mediterranean Sea to the east and north. It has an area of 63,378 square miles (164,150 square km); the capital is Tunis . With its more than 800 miles (1,300 km) of coastline, Tunisia has often been compared to the hull of a ship, solidly moored on the continent but also freely washed by the waves; in consequence, its destiny, as its leaders never tire of repeating, is at once Mediterranean and Maghrebian. Because the Maghreb constitutes a single geographic entity, the largely undemarcated boundaries separating Tunisia from Libya and Algeria do not assume the form of any natural barrier but, rather, have been shaped by the vicissitudes of history. Tunisia's strategic importance was the reason for the conquest of Ottomans. A small state with limited resources, Tunisia nonetheless managed a considerable autonomy within the framework of larger empires ruled from afar. This status was achieved, for example, under the Abbasids in the 9th century and later under the Ottomans. Although Ottoman administration is good , expanding European power changed the status of Tunisia. Tunisia's geographic and historical legacy helped prepare it for the shocks it received in the 19th century as a land caught between an expanding Europe and a declining Ottoman Empire. Yet Tunisia proved to be as vulnerable economically as it was militarily.

Tunisia is considered to be one of the most liberal nations in the Islamic world, especially in terms of the rights accorded to women. The country has been influenced throughout its history by waves of immigrants - primarily Phonecian, Arab, Berber, African, Turkish, and European giving rise to a unique Tunisian culture. The official language of Tunisia is Arabic, although the use of French is widespread, reflecting the country's French colonial history. A number of international festivals are held annually in Tunisia, celebrating music, dancing, film, and history. In addition, numerous archaeological sites and museums are located throughout the country, including ruins at the ancient Roman city of Carthage. The prestigious Bardo Museum in Tunis houses an impressive collection of Tunisia's world-renowned mosaics. Photo courtesy of Manfred Leiter.
