Where it is
Liechtenstein is grouped in Western Europe, within Roam’s Europe region. Its land-border list includes 2 countries in this atlas: Austria, Switzerland. It is landlocked.
Liechtenstein has a recorded area of 160 square kilometres. Among the 8 countries assigned to Western Europe in this dataset, it ranks 7 by area, from largest to smallest. Luxembourg is immediately above it in that ordering, at 2,586 km². Monaco is immediately below it, at 2.02 km². This comparison uses the source’s area figures and subregions, not a ranking of all territories.
The marker shows the atlas location. Small countries may be too small for an outline at this scale. Map boundaries are illustrative.
People, languages and currency
The World Bank records 41,024 people for Liechtenstein in 2025. This is the latest non-empty annual observation in Roam’s committed 2020–2025 download, rather than a live population counter. Dividing that population by the source area gives approximately 256 people per square kilometre. This calculated average does not describe how evenly people are distributed.
The language entries in the source are German. They describe the dataset’s listed languages, not every language spoken by residents. The currency listed for this date is Swiss Franc (CHF). Currency assignments are selected from Unicode CLDR’s date ranges for 23 October 2026; the three-letter codes identify currencies, not countries.
