One Europe - 100 Nations is the first book to provide a concise and completely up-to-date guide to the main 100 nations of present-day Europe. Written in a lively and anecdotal style, special features include: a separate page for each nation with brief history, full colour illustrations throughout, numerous helpful maps and charts, appendices covering European religions, languages, monarchies, and a detailed timetable of recent events in Europe. Roy Pedersen presents a historical survey of the region, its cultures, heritage and languages, together with a helpful guide to heraldry and flags. He also looks to the future and offers an analysis of the likely outcome of current events.
