介於中國和印度之間的內陸國家。中國從1950年代起就一直宣稱擁有不丹的部分領土，強大的壓力迫使不丹向印度靠攏。中國於1990年代後期才放棄領土主張，但仍和不丹維持一小部分邊界爭議。與此同時，印度和不丹的關係越來越緊密，印度長年來推出許多金援不丹的計畫，也曾一度掌握不丹的外交話語權。不丹在中印兩個大國之間盡可能確保自力更生，近年來積極與孟加拉、尼泊爾、泰國發展雙邊經濟。另外特別的是，不丹是唯一一個擁有剩餘能源的南亞國家，其80%以上的水力發電都出口到印度。
看2022Year Founded: 1907
Before Bhutan became a protectorate of the UK in 1907, it maintained a tributary relationship with the Qing Empire. After the end of British colonization, Bhutan became a protectorate of India instead. Bhutan and India signed the Treaty of Friendship, under which Bhutan is to follow the directives of India in terms of diplomacy and national defense. Hence, Bhutan has very few diplomatic allies, with diplomatic relationships established with a mere 54 countries, and is the only member state of the United Nations with no diplomatic relations with either the People's Republic of China or Taiwan.
In order to preserve its natural environment and ancient culture, Bhutan has deliberately stalled its development of industry and tourism, with its income mainly derived from selling hydroelectricity to India. But in recent years, Bhutan has been increasingly feeling the invasion of modern civilization.
