Jordan rarely dominates the headlines, yet it sits at the heart of some of West Asia's biggest geopolitical faultlines. Bordering Israel and the occupied West Bank, Syria, Iraq and Saudi Arabia, the kingdom has been shaped by the Palestinian question, successive regional wars, and shifting alliances.
