The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is bordered on the southeast by Saudi Arabia, the southwestern tip is a short coastline on the Gulf of Aqaba, the western border with Israel is formed by the Great Rift Valley of the Jordan River and the Dead Sea, Syria is on the north and Iraq is on the east.
Jordan, slightly smaller than the State of Indiana, is mostly desert plateau in the east and highlands in the west; the Great Rift Valley separates the East and West Banks of the Jordan River. Jordan's climate is mostly arid desert with a November to April rainy season in the west where most of the population resides.
The earliest known history of the land that has become Jordan began around 2000 BC when it was known as Canaan. The area hs been invaded and settled by "Hittites, Egyptians, Israelites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arab Muslims, Christian Crusaders, Marmeluks, Ottoman Turks and the British." Jordan is currently a constitutional monarchy based on Islamic law and French code. Jordanian citizens over 18 are granted universal sufferage. The capital of Jordan is Amman.
