Luxembourg is a small landlocked country in western Europe, bordered by Belgium, France, and Germany. Luxembourg has a population of under half a million people in an area of about 2,600 square kilometres (997 sq mi), which is slightly smaller than the American state of Rhode Island.
Luxembourg is a parliamentary representative democracy with a constitutional monarchy, ruled by a Grand Duke. It is the world's only sovereign Grand Duchy. The country has a highly-developed economy, with the highest Gross Domestic Product per capita in the world. Luxembourg is a founding member of the European Union, NATO, the United Nations, Benelux, and the Western European Union, reflecting the political consensus in favour of economic, political, and military integration. The city of Luxembourg, the capital and largest city, is the seat of several institutions and agencies of the European Union.
Luxembourg lies on the cultural divide between Romance Europe and Germanic Europe, borrowing customs from each of the distinct traditions. While French and Luxembourgish are the predominant languages in daily life and on the streets, Luxembourg remains a trilingual country; French, German, and Luxembourgish are official languages. Although a secular state, Luxembourg is predominantly Roman Catholic.

Europe, about an hour from my house! It's between France, Belgium, and Germany, about due east of Paris. Lovely place too, I had horse for breakfast there the other day. Weird I know, but it was actually pretty good.

luxembourg is in europe and is technically a part of france but it has its own government since it disbanded from france. however though it is no longer under the rule of france it still follows their laws and considers itself "attached" to france. it is a wonderful place to live
