Jordan People - Overlanding Africa.com


Jordan people you may come across on your Overlanding Africa.com trip consist largely of Jordanians, with a number of smaller ethnic minorities from surrounding Arabic nations. Jordan is one of the most harmonious countries within the Middle East, with Muslim and Christian inhabitants living side by side without any religious differences or unrest. People in Jordan are free to practice the religion of their choice, and embrace the culture and lifestyle of their choice, resulting in a fairly diverse demographic profile that is fairly rare to find in a predominately Arabic country.

On the whole, Jordanian people are known for their warmth and friendliness, and their relaxed and integrated approach to beliefs and ethnicity. Tolerance plays a big role in the acceptance of people from all walks of life, and this quality is something that Jordanians value highly.
