Interesting Place - San Marino
Located 137 miles north of Rome, San Marino is the oldest and one of the smallest republics in the world.
(In fact it is the third smallest state in Europe (after the Holy See and Monaco) also claims to be the world's oldest republic. According to tradition, it was founded by a Christian stonemason named Marino in 301 A.D. Next time I am in Italy I intend to visit.)
