North Macedonia Macedonia before February 2019), officially the Republic of North Macedonia , is a country in Southeast Europe . It gained independence in 1991 as one of the successor states of Yugoslavia . North Macedonia is a landlocked country bordering with Kosovo to the northwest, Serbia to the north, Bulgaria to the east, Greece to the south, and Albania to the west. It constitutes approximately the northern third of the larger geographical region of Macedonia . Skopje , the capital and largest city, is home to a quarter of the country's 1.83 million population. The majority of the residents are ethnic Macedonians , a South Slavic people . Albanians form a significant minority at around 25%, followed by Turks , Romani , Serbs , Bosniaks , Aromanians and a few other minorities.
The history of the region begins with the
kingdom of Paeonia , a mixed
Thraco -
Illyrian polity. In the late sixth century BC, the area was subjugated by the Persian
Achaemenid Empire , then incorporated into the
Kingdom of Macedonia in the fourth century BC. The
Roman Empire conquered the region in the second century BC and made it part of the larger province of
Macedonia . The area remained part of the
Byzantine Empire , but was often raided and settled by
Slavic tribes beginning in the sixth century of the Christian era. Following
centuries of contention between the
Bulgarian , Byzantine, and
Serbian Empires , it was part of the
Ottoman Empire from the mid-14th until the early 20th century, when, following the
Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913, the modern territory of North Macedonia came under
Serbian rule. (

Image 1 The
United States of America (
U.S.A. or
USA ), commonly known as the
United States (
U.S. or
US ) or
America , is a country
primarily located in
North America . It consists of 50
states , a
federal district , five major
unincorporated territories , 326
Indian reservations , and some
minor possessions . At 3.8 million square miles (9.8 million square kilometers), it is the world's
third- or fourth-largest country by geographic area . The United States shares significant land borders with
Canada to the north and
Mexico to the south as well as limited maritime borders with the
Bahamas ,
Cuba , and
Russia . With a population of more than 331 million people, it is the
third most populous country in the world. The
national capital is
Washington, D.C. , and the
most populous city is
New York City .
Paleo-Indians migrated from Siberia to the North American mainland at least
12,000 years ago , and
European colonization began in the 16th century. The United States emerged from the
thirteen British colonies established along the
East Coast . Disputes with
Great Britain over
taxation and
political representation led to the
American Revolutionary War (1775–1783), which established the nation's
independence . In the late 18th century, the U.S. began expanding across North America, gradually
obtaining new territories , sometimes
through war , frequently
displacing Native Americans , and
admitting new states ; by 1848, the United States spanned the continent.
Slavery was legal in the
southern United States until the second half of the 19th century, when the
American Civil War led to
its abolition . The
Spanish–American War and
World War I established the U.S. as a
world power , a status confirmed by the outcome of
World War II . During the
Cold War , the United States fought the
Korean War and the
Vietnam War but avoided direct military conflict with the
Soviet Union . The two superpowers competed in the
Space Race , culminating in the
1969 spaceflight that first landed humans on
the Moon . The
Soviet Union's dissolution in 1991 ended the Cold War, leaving the United States as the world's sole
superpower .
The United States is a
federal presidential -
constitutional republic with
three separate branches of government , including a
bicameral legislature . It is a founding member of the
United Nations ,
World Bank ,
International Monetary Fund ,
Organization of American States ,
NATO , and other international organizations. It is a
permanent member of the
United Nations Security Council . Considered a
melting pot of
cultures and
ethnicities , its population has been profoundly shaped by
centuries of immigration . The United States
ranks high in international measures of
economic freedom ,
quality of life ,
education , and
human rights ; it has low levels of
perceived corruption . However, it has been criticized for
inequality related to
race ,
wealth , and
income ; use of
capital punishment ; high
incarceration rates ; and lack of
universal health care . (

Image 2 India , officially the
Republic of India (
Hindi :
Bhārat Gaṇarājya ), is a country in
South Asia . It is the
seventh-largest country by area, the
second-most populous country, and the most populous
democracy in the world. Bounded by the
Indian Ocean on the south, the
Arabian Sea on the southwest, and the
Bay of Bengal on the southeast, it shares land borders with
Pakistan to the west;
China ,
Nepal , and
Bhutan to the north; and
Bangladesh and
Myanmar to the east. In the Indian Ocean, India is in the vicinity of
Sri Lanka and the
Maldives ; its
Andaman and Nicobar Islands share a maritime border with
Thailand ,
Myanmar and
Indonesia .
Modern humans arrived on the
Indian subcontinent from Africa no later than 55,000 years ago.
Their long occupation, initially in varying forms of isolation as hunter-gatherers, has made the region highly diverse, second only to Africa in human
genetic diversity .
Settled life emerged on the subcontinent in the western margins of the
Indus river basin 9,000 years ago, evolving gradually into the
Indus Valley Civilisation of the third millennium BCE.
By 1200
BCE , an
archaic form of
Sanskrit , an
Indo-European language , had
diffused into India from the northwest,
unfolding as the language of the
Rigveda , and recording the dawning of
Hinduism in India. The
Dravidian languages of India were supplanted in the northern and western regions.
By 400
BCE ,
stratification and
exclusion by
caste had emerged within Hinduism,
and
Buddhism and
Jainism had arisen, proclaiming
social orders unlinked to heredity.
Early political consolidations gave rise to the loose-knit
Maurya and
Gupta Empires based in the
Ganges Basin .
Their collective
era was suffused with wide-ranging creativity, but also marked by the declining status of women, and the incorporation of
untouchability into an organised system of belief. In
South India , the
Middle kingdoms exported Dravidian-languages scripts and religious cultures to the kingdoms of
Southeast Asia .
In the early medieval era,
Christianity ,
Islam ,
Judaism , and
Zoroastrianism put down roots on India's southern and western coasts.
Muslim armies from
Central Asia intermittently overran India's northern plains,
eventually establishing the
Delhi Sultanate , and drawing northern India into the cosmopolitan
networks of medieval Islam .
In the 15th century, the
Vijayanagara Empire created a long-lasting composite Hindu culture in south India.
In the
Punjab ,
Sikhism emerged, rejecting institutionalised religion.
The
Mughal Empire , in 1526, ushered in two centuries of relative peace,
leaving a legacy of luminous architecture.
Gradually expanding
rule of the British East India Company followed, turning India into a colonial economy, but also consolidating its
sovereignty .
British Crown rule began in 1858. The rights promised to Indians were granted slowly, but
technological changes were introduced, and ideas of education, modernity and the public life took root.
A pioneering and influential nationalist movement emerged, which was noted for nonviolent resistance and became the major factor in ending British rule. In 1947 the British Indian Empire was
partitioned into two independent
dominions , a Hindu-majority
Dominion of India and a Muslim-majority
Dominion of Pakistan , amid large-scale loss of life and an unprecedented migration. (

Image 3 The
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland , commonly known as the
United Kingdom (
UK ) or
Britain , is a
sovereign country in north-western Europe, off the north-western coast of the European mainland. The United Kingdom includes the island of
Great Britain , the north-eastern part of the island of
Ireland , and many smaller islands within the
British Isles . Northern Ireland shares
a land border with the
Republic of Ireland . Otherwise, the United Kingdom is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, with the
North Sea to the east, the
English Channel to the south and the
Celtic Sea to the south-west, giving it the 12th-longest coastline in the world. The
Irish Sea separates Great Britain and Ireland. The total area of the United Kingdom is 93,628 square miles (242,500 km
2 ), with an estimated population in 2020 of 67 million.
The United Kingdom is a unitary
parliamentary democracy and
constitutional monarchy . The monarch,
Queen Elizabeth II , has reigned since 1952. The capital and
largest city is
London , a global city and financial centre with a metropolitan area population of 14 million.
The United Kingdom consists of
four countries :
England ,
Scotland ,
Wales and
Northern Ireland . Other than England, the constituent countries have their own
devolved governments , each with varying powers.
The United Kingdom has evolved from a series of annexations, unions and separations of constituent countries over several hundred years. The
Treaty of Union between the
Kingdom of England (which included Wales,
annexed in 1542 ) and the
Kingdom of Scotland in 1707 formed the
Kingdom of Great Britain . Its
union in 1801 with the
Kingdom of Ireland created the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland . Most of Ireland seceded from the UK in 1922, leaving the present United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which formally adopted that name in 1927. (

Image 4 China (
Chinese :
中国 ;
pinyin :
Zhōngguó ), officially the
People's Republic of China (
PRC ;
Chinese :
中华人民共和国 ;
pinyin :
Zhōnghuá Rénmín Gònghéguó ), is a country in
East Asia . It is the world's
most populous country , with a
population of more than 1.4 billion. China spans five geographical
time zones and
borders 14 different countries, the
second most of any country in the world after
Russia . Covering an area of approximately 9.6 million square kilometers (3,700,000 sq mi), it is the world's
third or fourth largest country . The country consists of 23
provinces , four
municipalities , five
autonomous regions , and two
Special Administrative Regions (
Hong Kong and
Macau ). The national capital is
Beijing .
China emerged as one of the world's
first civilizations in the fertile basin of the
Yellow River in the
North China Plain . China was one of the world's
foremost economic powers for most of the
two millennia from the 1st until the 19th century. For millennia, China's political system was based on absolute hereditary monarchies, or
dynasties , beginning with the semi-legendary
Xia dynasty in the 21st century
BCE . Since then, China has expanded, fractured, and re-unified numerous times. In the 3rd century BCE,
the Qin reunited core China and established
the first Chinese empire . The succeeding
Han dynasty (206 BCE – 220 CE) saw some of the
most advanced technology at that time, including
papermaking and the
compass , along with agricultural and medical improvements. The invention of
gunpowder and
movable type in the
Tang dynasty (618–907) and
Northern Song dynasty (960–1127) completed the
Four Great Inventions . Tang culture spread widely in Asia, as the new
Silk Road brought traders to as far as
Mesopotamia and the
Horn of Africa . The
Qing dynasty , China's last dynasty, which formed the territorial basis for modern China,
suffered heavy
losses to foreign
imperialism in the 19th century.
The
Chinese monarchy collapsed in 1912 with the
Xinhai Revolution , when the
Republic of China (ROC) replaced the Qing dynasty. China was
invaded by the
Empire of Japan during
World War II . The
Civil War resulted in a
division of territory in 1949 when the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
established the People's Republic of China on the
mainland while the
Kuomintang -led ROC government
retreated to the island of
Taiwan . Both claim to be
the sole legitimate government of China , although the
United Nations has recognized the PRC as the sole representation since 1971. China conducted a series of
economic reforms since 1978 , and
entered into the
World Trade Organization in 2001. (

island country in
East Asia . It is situated in the northwest
Pacific Ocean , and is bordered on the west by the
Sea of Japan , while extending from the
Sea of Okhotsk in the north toward the
East China Sea and
Taiwan in the south. Japan is a part of the
Ring of Fire , and spans
an archipelago of
6852 islands covering 377,975 square kilometers (145,937 sq mi); the five main islands are
Hokkaido ,
Honshu (the "mainland"),
Shikoku ,
Kyushu , and
Okinawa .
Tokyo is the
nation's capital and largest city; other major cities include
Yokohama ,
Osaka ,
Nagoya ,
Sapporo ,
Fukuoka ,
Kobe , and
Kyoto .
Japan is the
eleventh-most populous country in the world, as well as one of the
most densely populated and
urbanized . About three-fourths of
the country's terrain is mountainous, concentrating its population of 125.44 million on narrow
coastal plains . Japan is divided into
47 administrative prefectures and
eight traditional regions . The
Greater Tokyo Area is the
most populous metropolitan area in the world, with more than 37.4 million residents.
Japan
has been inhabited since the
Upper Paleolithic period (30,000 BC), though the first written mention of the archipelago appears in a Chinese chronicle (the
Book of Han ) finished in the 2nd century AD. Between the 4th and 9th centuries, the kingdoms of Japan became unified under
an emperor and
the imperial court based in
Heian-kyō . Beginning in the 12th century, political power was held by a series of military dictators (
shōgun ) and feudal lords (
daimyō ), and enforced by a class of warrior nobility (
samurai ). After
a century-long period of civil war , the country was reunified in 1603 under the
Tokugawa shogunate , which enacted
an isolationist foreign policy . In 1854,
a United States fleet forced Japan to
open trade to the West , which led to
the end of the shogunate and
the restoration of imperial power in 1868. In the
Meiji period , the
Empire of Japan adopted
a Western-modeled constitution and pursued a program of
industrialization and
modernization . Amidst a rise in militarism and overseas colonization, Japan
invaded China in 1937 and entered
World War II as an
Axis power in 1941. After suffering defeat in the
Pacific War and
two atomic bombings , Japan
surrendered in 1945 and came under a seven-year
Allied occupation , during which it adopted a
new constitution . Under the 1947 constitution, Japan has maintained a
unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a
bicameral legislature, the
National Diet . (

Image 6 Russia (Russian:
Россия ,
tr. Rossiya ,
pronounced [rɐˈsʲijə] ), or the
Russian Federation , is a country spanning
Eastern Europe and
Northern Asia . It is the
largest country in the world , covering over 17,125,191 square kilometres (6,612,073 sq mi), and encompassing one-eighth of Earth's inhabitable landmass. Russia extends across
eleven time zones , and has the
most borders of any country in the world, with
sixteen sovereign nations . It has a population of 146.2 million; and is the
most populous country in Europe, and the
ninth-most populous country in the world.
Moscow , the capital, is the
largest city entirely within Europe ; while
Saint Petersburg is the country's
second-largest city and cultural centre.
The
East Slavs emerged as a recognisable group in Europe between the 3rd and 8th centuries AD. The
medieval state of
Rus' arose in the 9th century. In 988, it adopted
Orthodox Christianity from the
Byzantine Empire . Rus' ultimately disintegrated, and the
Grand Duchy of Moscow rose during the 15th century. By the 18th century, the nation had vastly expanded through conquest, annexation, and
exploration to evolve into the
Russian Empire , the
third-largest empire in history. Following the
Russian Revolution , the
Russian SFSR became the largest and leading
constituent of the
Soviet Union , the world's first constitutionally
socialist state . The Soviet Union played a
decisive role in the
Allied victory in
World War II , and emerged as a
superpower and rival to the United States during the
Cold War . The Soviet era saw some of the
most significant technological achievements of the 20th century, including the world's
first human-made satellite and the launching of the
first human in space .
Following the
dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Russian SFSR reconstituted itself as the Russian Federation. In the aftermath of the
constitutional crisis of 1993 , a new
constitution was adopted, and Russia has since been governed as a
federal semi-presidential republic.
Vladimir Putin has dominated Russia's political system
since 2000 ; during the period Russia has experienced
democratic backsliding , and has
shifted to an authoritarian state . (

Image 7 Ukraine (
Ukrainian :
Україна ,
romanized : Ukraïna ,
pronounced [ʊkrɐˈjinɐ] (listen ) is a country in
Eastern Europe . It is the
second-largest country by area in Europe after
Russia , which it borders to the east and north-east. Ukraine also shares borders with
Belarus to the north;
Poland ,
Slovakia , and
Hungary to the west;
Romania and
Moldova to the south; and has a coastline along the
Sea of Azov and the
Black Sea . It spans an area of 603,628 km
2 (233,062 sq mi), with a population of 41.3 million, and is the
eighth-most populous country in Europe. The nation's capital and
largest city is
Kyiv .
The territory of modern Ukraine has been inhabited since 32,000 BC. During the
Middle Ages , the area was a key centre of
East Slavic culture, with the powerful state of
Kievan Rus' forming the basis of Ukrainian identity. Following its fragmentation into several principalities in the 13th century and the devastation created by the
Mongol invasion , the territorial unity collapsed and the area was contested, ruled, and divided by a variety of powers, including the
Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth ,
Austria-Hungary , the
Ottoman Empire , and
Tsardom of Russia . A
Cossack Hetmanate emerged and prospered during the 17th and 18th centuries, but its territory was eventually split between
Poland and the
Russian Empire . In the aftermath of the
Russian Revolution , a Ukrainian national movement for self-determination emerged, and the internationally recognized
Ukrainian People's Republic was declared on 23 June 1917. After
World War II , the western part of Ukraine merged into the
Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic , and the whole country became a part of the
Soviet Union . Ukraine gained its independence in 1991, following the
dissolution of the Soviet Union .
Following its independence, Ukraine declared itself a
neutral state ; it formed a limited military partnership with Russia and other
CIS countries while also establishing a
partnership with NATO in 1994. In 2013, after the government of President
Viktor Yanukovych had decided to suspend the
Ukraine–European Union Association Agreement and seek closer economic ties with Russia, a several-months-long wave of demonstrations and protests known as the
Euromaidan began, which later escalated into the
Revolution of Dignity that led to the overthrow of Yanukovych and the establishment of a new government. These events formed the background for the
annexation of Crimea by Russia in March 2014 and the
War in Donbas in April 2014. On 1 January 2016, Ukraine applied for the economic component of the
Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area with the European Union. (

Various
Germanic tribes have inhabited the northern parts of modern Germany since
classical antiquity . A region named
Germania was documented before AD 100. In the 10th century, German territories formed a central part of the
Holy Roman Empire . During the 16th century,
northern German regions became the centre of the
Protestant Reformation . Following the
Napoleonic Wars and the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806, the
German Confederation was formed in 1815. In 1871, Germany became a nation-state when
most of the German states unified into the
Prussian -dominated
German Empire . After
World War I and the
German Revolution of 1918–1919 , the Empire was replaced by the semi-presidential
Weimar Republic .
The
Nazi seizure of power in 1933 led to the establishment of
a dictatorship ,
World War II , and
the Holocaust . After the end of World War II in Europe and a period of
Allied occupation , Germany was divided into the Federal Republic of Germany, generally known as
West Germany , and the German Democratic Republic,
East Germany . The Federal Republic of Germany was a founding member of the
European Economic Community and the
European Union , while the German Democratic Republic was a communist
Eastern Bloc state and member of the
Warsaw Pact . After the
fall of communism ,
German reunification saw the
former East German states join the Federal Republic of Germany on
3 October 1990 —becoming a federal
parliamentary republic . (

Image 9 Canada is a country in
North America . Its
ten provinces and three territories extend from the
Atlantic to the
Pacific and northward into the
Arctic Ocean , covering 9.98 million square kilometres (3.85 million square miles), making it the world's
second-largest country by total area . Its southern and western
border with the United States , stretching 8,891 kilometres (5,525 mi), is the world's longest bi-national land border. Canada's capital is
Ottawa , and its three
largest metropolitan areas are
Toronto ,
Montreal , and
Vancouver .
Indigenous peoples have continuously inhabited what is now Canada for thousands of years. Beginning in the 16th century,
British and
French expeditions explored and later settled along the Atlantic coast. As a consequence of
various armed conflicts , France
ceded nearly all of
its colonies in North America in 1763. In 1867, with the union of three
British North American colonies through
Confederation , Canada was formed as a
federal dominion of four provinces. This began an
accretion of provinces and territories and a process of increasing autonomy from the
United Kingdom . This widening autonomy was highlighted by the
Statute of Westminster 1931 and culminated in the
Canada Act 1982 , which severed the vestiges of legal dependence on the
Parliament of the United Kingdom .
Canada is a
parliamentary democracy and a
constitutional monarchy in the
Westminster tradition . The country's
head of government is the
prime minister —who holds office by virtue of their ability to
command the confidence of the elected
House of Commons —and is appointed by the
governor general , representing the
monarch , who serves as
head of state . The country is a
Commonwealth realm and is
officially bilingual at the federal level. It
ranks among the highest in international measurements of government transparency, civil liberties, quality of life,
economic freedom , and education. It is one of the world's most ethnically diverse and
multicultural nations, the product of
large-scale immigration from many other countries. Canada's
long and complex relationship with the United States has had a significant impact on
its economy and
culture . (

Image 10 Australia , officially the
Commonwealth of Australia , is a
sovereign country comprising the mainland of the
Australian continent , the island of
Tasmania , and numerous
smaller islands . With an area of 7,617,930 square kilometres (2,941,300 sq mi), Australia is the largest country by area in
Oceania and the world's
sixth-largest country . Australia is the oldest, flattest, and driest inhabited continent, with the least fertile
soils . It is a
megadiverse country , and its size gives it a wide variety of landscapes and climates, with
deserts in the centre, tropical
rainforests in the north-east, and
mountain ranges in the south-east.
Indigenous Australians have inhabited the continent for approximately
65,000 years . The
European maritime exploration of Australia commenced in the early 17th century with the arrival of
Dutch explorers. In 1770, Australia's eastern half was claimed by
Great Britain and initially
settled through
penal transportation to the colony of
New South Wales from 26 January 1788, a date which became Australia's
national day . The European population grew steadily in subsequent decades, and by the time of an 1850s
gold rush , most of the continent had been explored by European settlers and an additional five self-governing
crown colonies established. On 1 January 1901, the six colonies
federated , forming the Commonwealth of Australia. Australia has since maintained a stable
liberal democratic political system and wealthy
market economy .
Politically, Australia is a
federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy , comprising
six states and ten territories . Australia's population of nearly 26 million is highly
urbanised and heavily concentrated on the eastern seaboard.
Canberra is the nation's capital, while the
largest cities are
Sydney ,
Melbourne ,
Brisbane ,
Perth , and
Adelaide .
Australia's demography has been shaped by
centuries of immigration , with
immigrants accounting for 30% of the country's population, the
highest proportion among major
Western nations. Australia's abundant natural resources and well-developed international trade relations are crucial to the country's economy, which generates its income from various sources including
services ,
mining exports ,
banking ,
manufacturing ,
agriculture and
international education . (
