Monaco

Was checking the blog statistics after long and found 'Monaco' as 117th country to visit my page. I was wondering for a while from which part of this world this country belongs to... and only could remember parle monaco biscuits, if 'm not wrong Javed Jaffery was the one featured in the ad. Anyways.


Monaco, in EU (European Union) is the second smallest country in the world with a total area of 2 square kilometers and it shares 5.4 kilometers of its total land border with France, also 3.5 kilometers of coast line with Mediterranean Sea. With a population of 32,000 it is the most densely populated country in the world. Monaco's economy runs from tourism which is boosted by its pleasant weather and casinos. Monaco also hosts the famous 'Monaco Grand Prix' which held on the main streets of the country.

For your information, 'Vatican City' is the smallest country in the world with an area of 110 acres and 800 population.
