Definición

  • Latvia is a Baltic country in Europe, bordered by Estonia, Russia, Belarus, and Lithuania, with which it has strong cultural and linguistic ties. Mainly Protestant except for the Catholic minority in the south, Latvia has a sizable ethnic Russian population (about 27 percent, larger than all other minorities combined) and was formerly controlled by, first, the Russian Empire and, later, the Soviet Union.
