Living in Malta
The Republic of Malta is an island nation located in the Mediterranean Sea. It is located slightly south of Sicily. With 3,776 people on average in a square kilometre, Malta is the seventh most densely populated country in the World. The country joined the European Union in 2004 and adopted the Euro as its national currency in 2008. A former British colony, Malta played an important role in the Second World War for the Allied Nations, due to its strategic position in relation to Italy; the region as a whole was awarded a George Cross as a token of gratitude from Britain. Malta became independent in 1964. IN terms of geography, Malta actually consists of many islands, though only the largest three are inhabited, and the islands experiences a Mediterranean climate. The country is increasingly becoming a tourist destination, with over a million visitors annually. However, the rapid growth in this sector is a cause for concern for many locals. The country is rather multilingual, and this reflects the nations past and location; Maltese is the official language alongside English, though the vast majority of the population speak both and two thirds speak Italian as well. Similarly, Maltese architecture demonstrates a range of European influences.
