Palestine land and people are the entities of one of the oldest civilizations on earth. The political country of Palestine was created after the Second World War.
The Palestine land and people occupy an area that extends from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan river border. The West Asian country of Lebanon forms its southern border. The boundaries of the country are never constant due to political turbulence. The land of Palestine covers an area of 10,163 square miles. Most of the area is land surface. Water bodies are almost non-existent. The Palestinian land is demarcated into 4 geographical regions: the Southern Desert, Mountain and Hills, Jordan valley and Ghawr.
The demographics of Palestine is a result of many centuries of immigration. At present, the population of Palestine consists of a majority of Palestinians following the Islamic religious faith. There are approximately 2.4 million Palestinians in the country. The Gaza Strip is home to another approximately 1.4 million Palestinians. The population count of total Palestinian territories is approximately around the region of 4 million persons. This figure also includes the population count of the disputed territories.
