It's a beautiful mediterranean country, unfortunately though, neighbors have always wanted a piece of that tiny beauty and that have always caused trouble for Lebanon and the Lebanese. Also this country is very unlucky when it comes to rulers... Almost all politicians are inconsiderate and not loyal to their country

Lebanon is importnat econimically, strategically, politically, religiously and culturaly.

this question needs a dissertation :P but you can check my answer on ( Lebanon is famous for ? ) it might answer your question.

also

Lebanon is important to the west because its the most democratic country in the middle east. also the maronite church in Lebanon enjoys very good relations with France and the vatican.

Lebanon has some of the most important univerisites in the middle east, a highly literate and educated population. with more doctors and lawyers per capita than most European countries. recently global companies have chosen beirut as their bases of operation in the mideast.

Lebanon is an economic hub in the region. only 7 countries in the world made money in the past 12 month during the crisis, Lebanon was on top of them. for more info check wikipedia on Lebanon economy.

Lebanon is also important because its home to more than 10 million people who live in Europe and the Americas and who regularily visit their home country.

Lebanon is important because every religious group looks to a different country for support ( not a good thing ) for example christians look to France which means very good relations between Lebanon and France. sunnis look to Saudi Arabia and shia to Iran ( terrible thing )

Lebanon does over 70% of all publications in the mideast. most Arabs especially saudis and women publish their books in Lebanon because of resitriction in their own countries. Lebanon is a francophone country and its francophone book fair is the second biggest in the world after the Paris book fair.

beirut along with cairo is the cultural and artistic heart of the mideast. with six of the ten best selling artists in the middle east being lebanese.

lebanese immigrants have hundreds of buisnises in Latin America especially in brasil and Mexico. the third richest man in the world is carols selim helu a lebanese Mexican...

i hope this answers your question.
