Singapore

Singapore is a city-state that is situated roughly 85 miles (137 kilometres) north of the Equator at the southernmost point of the Malay Peninsula. The main island takes up the majority of the total area, save for around 18 square miles, which is made up of 60 smaller islands and the diamond-shaped Singapore Island. The Johor Strait, a confined passageway that is more than half a mile long and is traversed by both a road and rail causeway, divides the main island from Peninsular Malaysia to the north. The Riau-Lingga Archipelago, which is a part of Indonesia, extends to within 10 miles of the main island in Singapore Strait, which serves as the state’s southern boundary.
