With an area of 2,586 square kilometres, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is one of the smallest sovereign states in Europe and with a population of 626,108, it is one of the least-populous countries in Europe. It is headed by Grand Duke Henri and is the world's only remaining sovereign grand duchy. Its capital, Luxembourg City, is one of the four official capitals of the European Union and the seat of the Court of Justice of the European Union, the highest judicial authority in the EU. Luxembourg is a founding member of the European Union, OECD, United Nations, NATO, and Benelux.

The present-day state of Luxembourg first emerged at the Congress of Vienna in 1815. The Grand Duchy, with its powerful fortress, became an independent state under the personal possession of William I of the Netherlands with a Prussian garrison to guard the city against another invasion from France. In 1839, following the turmoil of the Belgian Revolution, the purely French-speaking part of Luxembourg was ceded to Belgium and the Luxembourgish-speaking part became what is the present state of Luxembourg.
