Jordan, officially the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, is an Arab kingdom in Western Asia, on the East Bank of the Jordan River. It borders Saudi Arabia to the south and east, Iraq to the northeast, Syria to the north, and Israel and Palestine to the west. Jordan is a constitutional monarchy with a rich and ancient history, encompassing various civilizations including the Nabataeans, Romans, and Ottomans. Its strategic location at the crossroads of Asia, Africa, and Europe has historically made it a significant geopolitical player in the region.
The relationship between Jordan and Israel is a critical aspect of Middle Eastern diplomacy. Jordan was the second Arab nation to sign a peace treaty with Israel in 1994, known as the Israel–Jordan peace treaty. This agreement normalized relations between the two countries, addressing issues such as borders, water resources, and security cooperation. Despite diplomatic ties, the relationship has faced challenges over the years, often influenced by the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the status of Jerusalem, where Jordan serves as the custodian of Muslim holy sites.
