Have you ever heard of the Republic of San Marino?

Like Vatican City, it is an independent state that exists inside Italy.

It exists on Mount Titano and is also known as the "Independent State of the Mountaintop" because it built a fortress on its 700-meter-high summit.

Its presence on the summit of the mountain has long protected its independence from European warfare.

The Republic of San Marino has a long history and is the oldest republic in the world.

The population of the Republic of San Marino is only about 30,000, and it is a rule that all judges are foreigners because they know each other so well that a fair trial is impossible.

The Republic of San Marino has many tourist resources, why not visit?
