Due to its privileged geographical position and its multi-thousand year history, Tunisia has always represented a crossroad for different civilizations and cultures. Various peoples of different beliefs and thoughts, multiple languages and lifestyles have successively settled or crossed each other in this territory.

Its location as a crossroad between the Mediterranean eastern and western basins, the Maghreb and the Machrek built up the country’s richness and prestigious history.

From Berbers, Carthaginians, Romans to Muslims including the Almohades, Hafsides, Turkish and finally the Husseinites, up to the French protectorate and the 1956 independence, Tunisia has built up a history and provided its people with an invaluable heritage.
