Why Malta? 请参阅中文介绍

Malta, one of the smallest countries in the world is situated in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea between Europe and Africa. Due to its great strategic location, Malta was ruled by all the major world powers which include the Arabs, the Knights of St John, the French, and the British, the latter under which Malta spent some 200 years in colonial rule. Malta gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1964 and became a republic in 1974. After years of negotiations, Malta successfully became a member of the European Union in 2004 and presently forms part of the Schengen Agreement. In 2008 Malta acceded to the eurozone, making the Euro our currency, relinquishing the former Maltese Lira.
