San Marino được độc lập khỏi Đế chế La Mã từ thế kỷ thứ 4, vua la mã ko nghĩ rằng nó có thể tồn tại lâu,
ấy thế mà, San Marino giờ đua tài ở Eurovision còn Đế chế La Mã thì mất tiêu :)

Monaco was granted sovereignty (chủ quyền) in the 1860s by Emperor Napoleon III of France, deposed (truất phế, hạ bệ) a few years later. San Marino received its independence (độc lập) from the Roman Empire (đế chế la mã) in the 4th Century, while Andorra was split off from the long forgotten Kingdom of Aragon in the 13th century. None of these great potentates (kẻ thống trị, vua chuyên quyền (có quyền hành trực tiếp đối với nhân dân của mình)) would ever have imagined that the tiny stubs of countries they took pity on would have legacies (di sản) much longer than their own. Yet today, San Marino competes in Eurovision and the Roman Empire does not.

Of the 30,000 or so residents, only 6,000 are actually citizens, the Monégasque. The rest are wealthy foreign residents keen to take advantage of its lenient tax system. The few real Monégasque reap the benefits as the state subsidises their rent and helps them find jobs. They are, however, banned from playing in the country’s most famous attraction, the Monte Carlo Casino.
I only spent a few hours in Monaco, mostly spent eating pistachio ice cream and trying to understand why it exists. The reason is quite simple, and must be credited to the ruling Grimaldi family who seized Monaco in the 13th century disguised as Franciscan monks hiding swords under their habits. From then on the Grimaldis convinced each European hegemon in turn let them stay in charge.
