Belarus

Belarus is best known internationally for its production of potash fertilisers, a major export from this landlocked eastern European country. Its largely low-lying terrain is crossed by the Dnieper, Neman and Pripyat rivers, while the southern Polesie region includes extensive wetlands and forests. Belovezhskaya Pushcha, shared with Poland, protects part of the ancient Białowieża Forest and is associated with European bison. Minsk combines Soviet-era avenues with the historic Upper Town, and the UNESCO-listed Mir Castle Complex and Radziwiłł residence at Nesvizh recall the era of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
