Compactness - growth
The 160 square kilometers of the Principality of Liechtenstein are home to some 34,000 inhabitants. That makes it the fourth smallest country in Europe. But it has a highly developed economy, with a total of 28,000 employees working in a wide range of businesses, including 53.3 % in retail and the service sector, 45.2 % in trade and industry, and 1.3 % in forestry and agriculture.
The Principality of Liechtenstein is a constitutional hereditary monarchy on a democratic and parliamentary basis. Sovereignty is exercised jointly by the Prince and the people.
