Latvia, country in northeastern Europe. Latvia is one of the Baltic states, along with Lithuania and Estonia. Its name in Latvian is Latvijas Republika (Republic of Latvia). Riga is the capital and largest city, as well as the chief port. Latvia is situated on the eastern shore of the Baltic Sea. Latvia covers an area of about 63,700 sq km (about 24,600 sq mi), of which 2,550 sq km (980 sq mi) is inland water. It is bounded on the north by Estonia and the Gulf of Riga, an inlet of the Baltic Sea; on the east by Russia; on the south by Belarus and Lithuania; and on the west by the Baltic Sea. Like the other Baltic republics, Latvia consists mostly of a low-lying plain. The population of Latvia (2001 estimate) is about 2,385,231, yielding an average population density of 37 persons per sq km (97 per sq mi). Latvia is highly urbanized. Some 74 percent of the population lives in urban areas, with nearly one-third of the total population residing in Riga. Other important cities include Daugavpils, an industrial center; and Liepaja, a seaport with an ice-free harbor. Numerous towns and small cities are located along the country's rivers, waterways, and coastal areas.
