because it is really cool

I'm from San Marino! Thank you for making a really good video about my country! You did a good job explaining most of his history. Actually I didn't know 15% of the historic facts that you said, so you are clearly more passionate in our history than an actual sammarinese, thank you again for this video!

I spent a day in San Marino. What a beautiful country. The view from the top of the castle is outstanding.

It was an informative and enjoyable introduction of the independent San Marino 🇸🇲 republic inside Italian peninsulas ....thank you for sharing

"There are nearly two hundred nations" - I like how this phrasing is so geopolitically neutral.

Fun fact: San Marino made Abraham Lincoln an honorary citizen of its republic.

San Marino is the oldest continuous republic in the whole world. Actually the governmental structure with the general council and two elected heads of state are modelled after the senate and two consuls of the ancient Roman Republic. San Marino, due to its size, holds also quite a few world records. For example it is the smallest country in the world that has won an Olympic medal (actually multiple Olympic medals).

I literally was wondering this yesterday and had to look it up. Great timing by you guys

this man makes me learn more than my history teacher

When I travelled from NZ to Europe for a driving tour of 22.00 km in 1996, I am proud to say I managed to include five small states: Andorra, Monaco, Vatican City, San Marino, and Liechtenstein. Even if San Marino was only to drive to the high point of the city and out in an afternoon, on the way to Ravenna.

San Marino is one of my favourite respective nations ever and a fascinating history of the country,good friends!!!I am fully hoping to visit there in future and LONG LIVE SAN MARINO!!!🇸🇲

Interesting! When I was a teenager( a very long time ago!), I learned about the existence of San Marino while studying maps and travel information about Europe. I love geography and travel, and I took a month-long tour of Western Europe during the summer between my junior and senior years of high school. I was surprised to learn that there were several independent micro states in Europe including San Marino. It definitely has an unusual location by being at a high elevation, landlocked, and completely surrounded by Italy. Undoubtedly, it is likely hard to get to. And of course, being such a tiny country in an isolated area means most people never hear about it in general. We learn something new everyday! What I just learned from watching this video is how and why San Marino exists.

Well, I’m sure that San Marino 🇸🇲 will one day win the EuroCup or even the World Cup ⭐️🇸🇲 😁😁

It's insane how it's one of the oldest nations in the world that survived over 2000 years mostly alone. Italy and it's past could of easily absorbed it. This nation had a possibility to not see the light of day and become a mostly lost and forgotten nation from the Middle Ages. Now it's known as the country with the worst football team and apart of the UN . If the founder of the Nation saw that it still exists to this day and all other European nations from the time are gone then he shall be proud

You're so good at this!❤

I was fortunate enough to stay in San Marino for a few days. Beautiful little country.

I enjoyed this. Thanks! It's too bad, though, that you didn't show some photos of San Marino" it's spectacular.

San Marino is one of my favourite country. From Singapore.

Thanks for these Videos

There's a special place in my heart for little San Marino

Cool video! :)

Very good information we didn't knew about this

great video thanks

Given the large number of Western European micro-states that have perished throughout history, the continued existence of San Marino, Monaco, Liechtenstein, and Andorra probably has more to do with luck than skill.

Fantastic video keep it up you're doing amazing things... 😊👍

One of the great "little" stories from history 👍. Thx.

San Marino's history: On 26 June 1944, the British bombed San Marino. On 21 September 1944, San Marino declared war on Germany. On 7 May 1945, General Alfred Jodl signed the German capitulation.

What an awesome history! Thanks!

What if every micro-state in the world banded together into one country?

Please release part 2 of Skanderbeg, it is the best and only in depth analysis which my school books have never taught us

Pretty cool! Thanks!

Its really good thing please give subtitles .God bless you

An absolutely fascinating state! If you do another quirky little Italian "state" you should totally look into "The Kingdom of Tavolara"!

May I know where you got your world map from ? It looks good.

wow i like your grafik design, may i ask you what a programm do you using for it?

The American ambassador to them should be Dan Marino

0:50 it is 61.2 km2 by area, it is part of the SI, so it doesn't uses freedom units.

“If we don’t move. Nobody can see us.”

Why...does...he...speak...so... slowly...?

Nice video

@Knowledgia could you please create a video about Why is Lichtenstein a country? - History of Lichtenstein in 12 Minutes

The video seems to imply that Rimini is in western Italy. It is in fact on the east coast, very near to San Marino.

They also have a good F1 racetrack, sort of. Great video

@Knowledgia could you please create a video about Why is Monaco a country? - History of Monaco in 12 Minutes

Can you make a video on King Alaric the first and the Visigoths, please? And another on Michael the Brave, please? Otherwise, Outstanding and informative videos. Thank you.

Everybody forgot about it?

A successful example of diplomacy to be followed

Kinda amazing that it has survived in tack. Thank you for this information.

What a coincidence. Today (22 June 2023) I was in San Marino as a tourist and now watching this history video.

San Marino, the OG Swiss!

Very knowledgeable ❤ video love from IND 🇮🇳🥰

It is better if you zoom it in. It's really hard to see 👀

San Marino is literally the capybara of Europe and quite humble too. Went there and it's a nice little place to just go and see though for some reason there are a lot of airsoft gun stores.

Surprised you managed to squeeze 12 mins out of such a small nation.

One of the coolest countries I’ve ever been to, I’ve been to most of Europe and this was one of the more unique places. Its off the beaten path but worth the visit

it takes longer to watch this video than to ride the bus across this country, including all the stops

I am still waiting for a moment when San Marino win a football match again 🤞✔👍!!! Greetings from Czech Republic.

Your pronunciations lol. Pius, Cesare Borggia. Funny thing is that you did an entire video on him

I have bern in San Amarion!! Absolutely fantastic!

San Marino actually has a pretty interesting history

Rimini is stressed on the first syllable, in English same as in Italian

W UPLOAD (FIRST)

@Knowledgia could you please create a video about Why is Luxembourg a country? - History of Luxembourg in 12 Minutes

Just based off that map at the beginning I finally realized why the Portuguese wanted that part or the Iberian peninsula.

2nd comment.... San Marino is a country I have developed fondness toward in my studies of countries and peoples. Its just a cool little place. A cool little history.

Gods definitely looking out for that tiny country!

This is going to be amazing i love this country

How can I apply for citizenship

I was there, a very beautiful country! And prices are lower than in Italy

@Knowledgia could you please create a video about Why is Vatican City a country? - History of Vatican City in 12 Minutes

South Africa also has some countries in it self.

I don’t know we should change that… 🥴

Do Andorra next!

The best rally ever was the San Marino rally..

Nu imi vine sa cred ca ai luat butonul de 1 mil aici in loc de canalul dedo😂😂🎉🎉

We might say that San Marino is a country for the same reasons for which Vatican City, Liechtenstein, Andorra, Luxembourg, Montecarlo are countries and possibly the Square Mile is a county .. ; )

Usually these things are just an accident of history -before 1860 Italy consisted of about 10 independent entities and only 3 have survived unification -Italy, San Marino and the Vatican - Germany consisted of hundreds and only a very few survived German unification at approximately the same time.

The little nation that could.

My goal in life is to be a great conqueror by "peacefully unifying" the area of the Roman Empire. And then I will give it all to San Marino because they are in my eyes the most legitimate successor of the Roman empire! 🇸🇲🦅

i living now romania.so can i know please from san marino county giving job opportunities to foreign workers? if giving have a links or any google pages? please reply to this comment.thank you and god bless you 👍 😊

Papal States: Doot Doot Dootly Doot Time to invade San Marino! France: *Don’t touch my child*

SHORT ANSWER. TAXES!

Because they are so adorablely cute one cannot absorb them

They only reason we know about it because they always lose with a score in football

Ok but what happened to those 10 guys who enlisted in WWI? Also there was a whole part of San Marino occupied by the Axis and subsequently attacked by the Allies in WWII that probably deserved a bit more of a mention but hey ho

Good! 🇸🇲

Are there any San marino mfs in the chat?

Türkiye is closely following this video.

San Marino was bombed by the American Army Air forces. There were about 35 civilian deaths. Even though the San Marino government assured the allies that there were no German troops stationed there, the allies believed that there were German artillery observers up on the mountain (there weren't).

I visited Sub Marino on my last trip to Italy

I LOVE YOU !

Interesting information well-organized, ruined by the grating mechanical voice.

Your essay started with a list of three types of countries, one of which was "countries landlocked by their neighbors". Then your first point after giving that list was "Some countries don't fall into any of these categories, like San Marino". San Marino is landlocked by Italy. I don't trust your logic. I'll go read a book thank you very much.

ah, the country of valentina monetta 😍👑

Without san Marino history books will be 2 page long

San Marino is a country, because Italy needs a laundry. Andorra is the laundry of Spain, Monaco is the laundry of France and Lichtenstein is the laundry of Germany. Luxembourg is a member and a laundry of the European Union.

Yes! san marino! It's in this video

Can you add metric values for the non-americans?

What size does a nation have - to- be , to have nuclear energy + wespon?
