San Marino (Our Future: A Map Game)

San Marino, officially the Republic of San Marino or traditionally the Most Serene Republic of San Marino, is a medieval Italian city state and sovereign nation located entirely within northern Italy, being one of the smallest countries in the world and having a population of 34,000 people. The capital is the City of San Marino while the largest city is Serravalle.

Located on and around Mount Titano, the mountainous microstate was founded as a Christian monastery by a mason named Marinus fleeing Roman persecution in 301 AD. Thus San Marino lays the claim of being the world's oldest sovereign nation, and adopting its constitution in 1600, laying the claim of being the oldest constitutional republic as well.
