Islam in Andorra
According to the US Religious Freedom Report of 2006 there are about 2000 North Africans currently living in Andorra (out of a total population of 72,000) and they are the largest Muslim group in the country.
[2] The Muslim community in Andorra has an Islamic Cultural Center which provides about 50 students with Arabic lessons.
The government and the Muslim community have not yet agreed on a system which would enable the schools to give such lessons.
The Muslims did not really stay in Andorra, rather using it as a shortcut to get to Toulouse, Narbonne, Carcassonne and Nîmes.
According to Antoni Filter i Rossell in his history book the Manual Digest (1748), in 788, 5000 Andorrans, led by Marc Almugàver came to Charlemagne's assistance in the Vall de Carol in fighting the Muslims.
