What is Lampedusa?
[[File:Lampedusa versante sud.jpg|thumb|right|Lampedusa, looking south]] '''Lampedusa''' is the largest of the [[Pelagie Islands]]. [[Sicily]] is 205&nbsp;km to the north, [[Tunisia]] is 113&nbsp;km to the south. There are no sources of [[freshwater]] on the island, so those living there collect [[rainwater]]. [[Fauna]] and [[Flora]], as well as the climate is similar to what can be found in [[North Africa]]. There is a [[North Atlantic Treaty Organisation|NATO]] base on the island. It is also a popular destination for [[refugee]]s who try to enter the [[European Union]] that way. {{commonscat}} {{multistub|Geo|Europe}} [[Category:Islands of Italy]] [[Category:Islands of Africa]] [[Category:Province of Agrigento]]
