Monaco, officially, Principauté de Monaco (French); Principatu de Múnegu (Monégasque); Principato di Monaco (Italian); Principat de Mónegue (Occitan) (The Principality of Moneco) is a constitutional monarchy and principality that is a small sovereign city-state located in South-western Europe that's completely enclosed by France. Monaco is the world's most densely populated sovereign country and is also the world's smallest French-speaking country. The capital is Monaco, of which the most populated quariter is Monte Carlo and the official language is French (though Monegaque, Italian and English are wildly understood). Monaco is the second-smallest principality in Europe and the second-smallest country in the world. Monaco's history goes back to the 6th century BCE, where the nearby Phocaean Greek colony referred to the Ligurians of the regions as Monoikos, derived from the Greek μόνοικος (Single House). However, the autonomy of the region begins in 1191 following the grant of land from Emperor Henry VI. Monaco was then re-founded in 1228 as a colony of Gonoa. In 1297 the House of Grimaldi became the city state's rulers and they remain the royal house to this day. In 1793, however, French Revolutionary forces captured Monaco and it remained under French control until 1814 when the principality was re-established, only to become a protectorate of the Kingdom of Sardinia in 1815 (a position in which the principality remained until 1860). In 1860, Sardinian territories were ceded to France and Monagasque independence was re-established by the Franco-Monegasque Treaty of 1861. During the Second World War the Italian army invaded and occupied Monaco in 1943 and following the collapse of Mussolini's regime the Nazi Whermacht occupied Monaco and began a forced deportation of the Jewish population. In 1993, the Principality of Monaco became a member of the United Nations. Although not officially a member of the European Eunion, Monaco is very closely tied to the EU via its customs union with France and in 2002 Monaco acquired the right to mint its own Euro coins with Monegasque designs. The cuisine of Monaco is very closely associated with that of Mediterranean France and Italy and many dishes are shared in common with the Côte d'Azur |
