Location of population far away from large cities, industrialized regions and connecting major transport routes also limits human impact on natural ecosystems. In 2015, areas under roads, networks, cities, villages and other settlements constituted only 0.8 per cent of the country’s territory (figure 12.1). Furthermore, some 580 species of moss, 1,033 species of lichens, 2,003 species and subspecies of algae and 574 species of fungi were present.
