- Why is San Marino a country? - History of San Marino in 12 Minutes
A priest, later known as Saint Marinus, is credited for founding San Marino on September 3, 301 AD. He is believed to have left modern-day Croatia for the Italian city of Rimini and eventually sought refuge in Monte Titano in response to the Diocletianic Persecution. Once in Monte Titano, Marinus built a monastery and intended to remain in the area and live the rest of his life as a hermit. This is what is seen as the founding of both the Republic of San Marino and its capital city of the same name.

I'm from San Marino! Thank you for making a really good video about my country! You did a good job explaining most of his history. Actually I didn't know 15% of the historic facts that you said, so you are clearly more passionate in our history than an actual sammarinese, thank you again for this video!
Lol. It is rarely seen, someone admitting its ignorance 😅
S to my C ❤❤❤
Your euros are hard to get😂
So why they speak I talian 😂
@@marlboro9tibikeI got some easily when i went there
because it is really cool
Didn't expect to see you here Hendway!
P S to my C
I mean been there twice and well they had megastores and an interesting fortress. Probably won't go thrice.

What's cooler than being cool?
@@dsxa918 Ice cold!
San Marino is the oldest continuous republic in the whole world. Actually the governmental structure with the general council and two elected heads of state are modelled after the senate and two consuls of the ancient Roman Republic.
San Marino, due to its size, holds also quite a few world records. For example it is the smallest country in the world that has won an Olympic medal (actually multiple Olympic medals).
San Marino actually has the highest ratio of Olympic medals pro-capita in the world. Not bad 😉
Spot on.
Fun fact: San Marino made Abraham Lincoln an honorary citizen of its republic.
Yes, this is true. Abraham Lincoln was an honorary citizen so was FDR and JFK.

It was an informative and enjoyable introduction of the independent San Marino 🇸🇲 republic inside Italian peninsulas ....thank you for sharing

I spent a day in San Marino. What a beautiful country. The view from the top of the castle is outstanding.

I literally was wondering this yesterday and had to look it up. Great timing by you guys
this man makes me learn more than my history teacher
Most likely you never paid much attention in school.
@@Fjodor.Tabularasa xD
why would you learn in school about San Marino? It isnt taught extensively about even in italy

When I travelled from NZ to Europe for a driving tour of 22.00 km in 1996, I am proud to say I managed to include five small states: Andorra, Monaco, Vatican City, San Marino, and Liechtenstein. Even if San Marino was only to drive to the high point of the city and out in an afternoon, on the way to Ravenna.

@@AEJASPER1 "But what does that mean?"
San Marino is one of my favourite respective nations ever and a fascinating history of the country,good friends!!!I am fully hoping to visit there in future and LONG LIVE SAN MARINO!!!🇸🇲
😐
thanks for the respect bro
It's insane how it's one of the oldest nations in the world that survived over 2000 years mostly alone. Italy and it's past could of easily absorbed it. This nation had a possibility to not see the light of day and become a mostly lost and forgotten nation from the Middle Ages. Now it's known as the country with the worst football team and apart of the UN . If the founder of the Nation saw that it still exists to this day and all other European nations from the time are gone then he shall be proud
yeah, I'm surprised that it has survived for so long without being conquered by another nation. It sounds too good to be true.
Maybe they can survive longer than the Roman Empire in the future
I question the beginning when he says that a wandering bishop or priest built a monastery on the site…it’s hard to believe how he was able to bring that about!
as a sanmarinese im honoured by your comment
roma invicta!
@@ecardecardian7839yeah IRAN,CHINA,GREECE can say: Romans? Hmm we remember before them
Well, I’m sure that San Marino 🇸🇲 will one day win the EuroCup or even the World Cup ⭐️🇸🇲 😁😁
😂😂😂😂😂
Nice one because their team won one match in it's entire history which was against lichnestein 😅
Intanto hanno vinto delle medaglie d'argento nelle ultime olimpiadi e io ho festeggiato.
Interesting! When I was a teenager( a very long time ago!), I learned about the existence of San Marino while studying maps and travel information about Europe. I love geography and travel, and I took a month-long tour of Western Europe during the summer between my junior and senior years of high school. I was surprised to learn that there were several independent micro states in Europe including San Marino. It definitely has an unusual location by being at a high elevation, landlocked, and completely surrounded by Italy. Undoubtedly, it is likely hard to get to. And of course, being such a tiny country in an isolated area means most people never hear about it in general. We learn something new everyday! What I just learned from watching this video is how and why San Marino exists.
❤ Hello friend

Hi from Italy .A bit late but.In fact a big part of S Marino economy come from tourism. Not isolated,e very well visited by tourist .The beach near S. Marino has tourist from all Europe, and they like to spend a day in the Little nation
0:50 it is 61.2 km2 by area, it is part of the SI, so it doesn't uses freedom units.
No no, this is an Usonian channel so San Marino is over 11,436 Football Fields

I was fortunate enough to stay in San Marino for a few days. Beautiful little country.
What if every micro-state in the world banded together into one country?
They'll pack quite a punch, I mean just Singapore, Bahrain, Hongkong and Macao combined have almost 1.5 trillion dollars in GDP PPP.
@@zakaria2664 lol I guess size isn't everything 😆
@@zakaria2664Hong Kong belongs to china
@@zakaria2664neither Macau or hong kong are microstates, they are officially deemed as special administrative regions of china.
@@massey81it depends who you ask
Thanks for these Videos
There's a special place in my heart for little San Marino
Very good information we didn't knew about this
great video thanks
Given the large number of Western European micro-states that have perished throughout history, the continued existence of San Marino, Monaco, Liechtenstein, and Andorra probably has more to do with luck than skill.
Liechtenstein as nation is pretty young; with HRE gone austria could not claim it for the new austrian empire an so it was a leftover
Andorra is old as eff too; it was founded by Charlemagne
🎉❤ Hello friend

I enjoyed this. Thanks! It's too bad, though, that you didn't show some photos of San Marino" it's spectacular.

San Marino's history:
On 26 June 1944, the British bombed San Marino.
On 21 September 1944, San Marino declared war on Germany.
On 7 May 1945, General Alfred Jodl signed the German capitulation.
What an awesome history! Thanks!
Cool video! :)
One of the great "little" stories from history 👍. Thx.
Thank you for explaining it
Fantastic video keep it up you're doing amazing things... 😊👍
❤❤ Hello friend

An absolutely fascinating state! If you do another quirky little Italian "state" you should totally look into "The Kingdom of Tavolara"!
That is a scam
1) Not a kingdom
2) Not independent
The American ambassador to them should be Dan Marino
San Marino is one of my favourite country.
From Singapore.

One of the coolest countries I’ve ever been to, I’ve been to most of Europe and this was one of the more unique places. Its off the beaten path but worth the visit
San Marino is literally the capybara of Europe and quite humble too. Went there and it's a nice little place to just go and see though for some reason there are a lot of airsoft gun stores.
Very knowledgeable ❤ video love from IND 🇮🇳🥰
Why...does...he...speak...so... slowly...?

It's fine
I have bern in San Amarion!! Absolutely fantastic!
A successful example of diplomacy to be followed
W UPLOAD (FIRST)
My goal in life is to be a great conqueror by "peacefully unifying" the area of the Roman Empire. And then I will give it all to San Marino because they are in my eyes the most legitimate successor of the Roman empire! 🇸🇲🦅
Nice, but strange. The founder fled from the Roman empire's prosecution...
@@ronaldderooij1774 pre Christian Roman Empire.
San Marino got independence from the Roman empire
Hmmm that is an interesting 6 year old dream
@@williamrobert9898we do not care
San Marino, the OG Swiss!
Rimini is stressed on the first syllable, in English same as in Italian
Surprised you managed to squeeze 12 mins out of such a small nation.
He milked the fcuk outta that vocal cadence though... this was a four minute video on qualudes.
2nd comment.... San Marino is a country I have developed fondness toward in my studies of countries and peoples. Its just a cool little place. A cool little history.
it takes longer to watch this video than to ride the bus across this country, including all the stops
Can you make a video on King Alaric the first and the Visigoths, please? And another on Michael the Brave, please?
Otherwise, Outstanding and informative videos. Thank you.

This is going to be amazing i love this country
Just based off that map at the beginning I finally realized why the Portuguese wanted that part or the Iberian peninsula.
San Marino actually has a pretty interesting history
I am still waiting for a moment when San Marino win a football match again 🤞✔👍!!! Greetings from Czech Republic.
What a coincidence. Today (22 June 2023) I was in San Marino as a tourist and now watching this history video.
How is it? i even never saw a picture of it
@@augustosannita9329 Beautiful, little fortress on the hill, bellow the fortress are stone houses now shops and restaurants between little streets.

Nu imi vine sa cred ca ai luat butonul de 1 mil aici in loc de canalul dedo😂😂🎉🎉
Everybody forgot about it?
Do Andorra next!
In the mean time, I wonder about something and hope you can help me out.
Where did the Country get the name "Andorra"? It is also an Alien planet inhabited by blue, insectoid people on "Star Trek".
"So what?"? Such planets on that show were often named after real stars or constellations.
Was the Country of Andorra named after the star? Or do both names share a common source in ancient mythology?
@@TheNoiseySpectator guess why star wars has _Aargau_ as a planet, with government by its bank :D
We might say that San Marino is a country for the same reasons for which Vatican City, Liechtenstein, Andorra, Luxembourg, Montecarlo are countries and possibly the Square Mile is a county .. ; )
Usually these things are just an accident of history -before 1860 Italy consisted of about 10 independent entities and only 3 have survived unification -Italy, San Marino and the Vatican - Germany consisted of hundreds and only a very few survived German unification at approximately the same time.
The best rally ever was the San Marino rally..
@Knowledgia could you please create a video about Why is Vatican City a country? - History of Vatican City in 12 Minutes
my guess: more than 12 minutes required

Because they are so adorablely cute one cannot absorb them
Ok but what happened to those 10 guys who enlisted in WWI?
Also there was a whole part of San Marino occupied by the Axis and subsequently attacked by the Allies in WWII that probably deserved a bit more of a mention but hey ho
They came back with one more soldier. It’s the only nation in ww1 who fought in it, did not lose any soldier and came back with more
20 enlisted, 10 joined the infantry and 10 joined the medical section
@@Word187 you're confusing them with Liechtenstein in the Austro-Prussian War, no?
@@Plevins ok, so what happened to them? How many lived?
@@oliverhughes610 You're right. I was confused between those two countries. Thank you for reminding me
Interesting information well-organized, ruined by the grating mechanical voice.

Has San Marino recognised the USA?

San Marino is a country, because Italy needs a laundry. Andorra is the laundry of Spain, Monaco is the laundry of France and Lichtenstein is the laundry of Germany. Luxembourg is a member and a laundry of the European Union.
You mean Nwtherlands....
Visited there in 1976
SHORT ANSWER. TAXES!
Envy is a nasty thing....
San Marino was bombed by the American Army Air forces. There were about 35 civilian deaths. Even though the San Marino government assured the allies that there were no German troops stationed there, the allies believed that there were German artillery observers up on the mountain (there weren't).
near our castle there are still some bomb marks but not many ( like 2/3 )
