  • Vatican City: The smallest country in the world, Vatican City is located entirely within Rome, Italy. It has a total area of only 0.17 square miles and a population of around 800 people.
  • Monaco: Located on the French Riviera, Monaco is the second-smallest country in Europe. With an area of just 0.78 square miles, it is known for its upscale casinos, yacht-lined harbor, and Formula One Grand Prix race.
  • San Marino: Situated within the borders of Italy, San Marino is the third-smallest country in Europe with a total area of just 23.6 square miles. Despite its small size, it has a rich cultural heritage and stunning architecture that makes it a popular tourist destination.
