Malta 's central position in the Mediterranean has involved it, often unwillingly, in conflicts happening in the area, therefore giving it a depth of history and cultural heritage relatively too large for its size. Its history is one of the main attractions for tourists who visit this small, central and historic island. This extraordinary history, that goes back 7000 years, possesses the largest number of monuments and historic sites in the world.
These are unique not just for Malta but for the world heritage as a whole, and should be preserved, as they form part of the remarkable Maltese identity.
