Not invading San Marino is the oldest meme.

[@raulmere]

Actually, Italy accidentally did it many times

[@raulmere]

From Italian Wikipedia, translated with DeepL: I bet the list is incomplete. Sometimes Italian police or military forces have mistakenly trespassed into the Republic, which has always made formal protests against the Italian government: March 25th, 2010: a van with two plainclothes soldiers from the Guardia di Finanza of the Gruppo Sportivi Fiamme Gialle, which left from Trentino and headed for Rome, crossed into the Republic and was driven back after inspections by the Gendarmerie to the border of Customs. May 8, 2010: a convoy of five Iveco VM 90 vehicles of the "Serenissima" Lagoon Regiment with about thirty uniformed soldiers leaving from Venice and heading for the military range of Carpegna (PU) was stopped at Fiorina and after the inspections was escorted by two Gendarmerie patrols to the border of Galazzano. May 10, 2010: a Fiat Ducato of the Italian Army with a military and a civilian on board from Caserta crossed the border into the Republic and was stopped for inspections by the Guardia di Rocca and the Gendarmerie, the military says he had to go to the Republic for an inspection. January 26, 2011: A military van with Air Force plates from the section of Bari coming from Rimini with five plainclothes soldiers on board the vehicle visiting for tourist purposes is stopped as soon as it crosses the border at Customs, stopped after the junction for the Atlas Centre by the Guardia di Rocca that guards the border, the military said they did not know the border and did not have the necessary permits to enter the Republic had to go back. February 2, 2011: a Navy car, and a van with civil license plate with two Air Force soldiers on board, two of the Navy, a target departing from Rome and heading north for a mission is stopped in the Republic, the vehicles are stopped at Serravalle and taken back by the Guardia di Rocca at the border of Customs. December 6, 2012: four Italian Army vehicles returning from the shooting range of Carpegna (PU) is stopped in Domagnano by the Guardia di Rocca and accompanied to the border of Customs. In 2010 the then Secretary of State for Foreign and Political Affairs Antonella Mularoni called the trespassing "serious incidents" and said that "the people of the Titan are tired of external harassment".

There is a reason why San Marino is so popular among the Russians: its proximity with Rimini. That airport has quite a lot of strategic air connections with Russia, especially in summer, and from there you can easily reach any holiday resort along the Adriatic sea. Since they land in Rimini, which is only a few kilometers from San Marino, and the small republic is well advertised in all the main hotels and other attractions in Rimini, a lot of Russian tourists end up visiting it.

Just some clarifications from an italian guy that went to San Marino: - VAT is lower than italy but some things are cheaper compared to italy (luxury things, perfumes etc) and some not (cigarettes, electronics etc) - Weapons sold in San Marino are Airsoft Guns (guns that shoots small plastic balls) that are legally sold in italy freely to people older than 18yo, the only "weapons" that need a license to be bought are crossbows and some kind of knives. - Many people over the years registered their cars/supercars in San Marino to avoid possession tax (aka "Bollo" in italian) and to avoid speeding tickets. Luckily this changed after the new laws for the tickets part. - Piadina is NOT San Marino's national dish, it is the most famous dish from Emilia Romagna! If you come to Rimini and tell Piadina is from San Marino they might kill you, i warned you... - San Marino "hosted" a F1 GP at Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola (where Ayrton Senna died) and a MotoGP race at Misano Circuit dedicated to Marco Simoncelli - In the San Marino's territory is held the "RallyLegend" that is an historic car rally with former Group B cars and historic pilots that attracts many people from all around the world.

I’ve been watching this since around the 4th episode. Watching this channel grow and Paul develop into such a large comedic educational informative platform to the point where he doesn’t answer within a day has been inspirational. We’re close to the Somalia episode now 😂 and looking forward to helping with providing all the info needed alongside other Somali geograpeeps. Well done Paul!

Ironically, this episode is launched at the moment when this country takes the first place in the world by the number of Coronavirus infected people per capita.

[@TomGeller]

Good catch! Statistically, the sample size differs too much from the bigger countries for a comparison to be valid. (The list is topped by nations of under a million people.) My theory: These are the only countries that have a (nearly) exact count of the infected. As such, they might indicate the real infection rate in bigger countries. But that's just a guess.

[@filipe691]

They also have the highest number of deaths per capita, unfortunately. I feel really bad for them, their economy relies on tourism, they're gonna be hit hard

[@Georgije2]

@@TomGeller they are pretty close to the covid epicenter of Italy though, so it makes sense that they have a much higher infection rate per capita than Italy as a whole

[@crisistian_]

A huge problem of their is their very high percentage of over-65 yrs old citizens. Just like every small-to-medium town in Italy (so, well, the 85% of all cities more or less)

[@witoldendrju2458]

Not surprising, as in small and tight - knit communities, if one person has covid, after one day everyone has. AND they're rich, so they probably have good tests (and in big amounts), so they have more confirmed cases per capita.

[@aginestet1]

You know... Until 2017, Davide Gualtieri - a player from San Marino - was the fastest scorer in an international football game. He scored for San Marino against England after 8.3 seconds in November 1993. And it took the English 20 minutes to equalize! And then they thrashed San Marino 7 - 1.

[@aginestet1]

@Master Of Fatality To be honest, I never saw the game so I only know what happened from other sources. But if you control the game (or at least have the ball for most of the time) without being able to score and losing, then you don't really control the game at all! For example, most of Iceland succesful games against bigger nations these last few years were games in which they did not "control" the game. But in San Marino's case, the English did equalize and then set the record straight.

[@aginestet1]

@Master Of Fatality So we agree. Truth be told, That was only my attempt to present that fact in an entertaining way.

Interesting fact about San Marino, they’re one of the very few countries to have a Formula One Grand Prix without having a circuit in the country. The nearby Italian town of Imola hosted the actual race but the race’s name was the San Marino Grand Prix

[@MMR_LM]

For anyone wondering, the other two are Luxembourg (held in Germany) and Switzerland (held in France) Switzerland *used* to host their own Grand Prix up until the 1955 Le Mans disaster, since then motorsport has been banned in Switzerland with very few exceptions (funnily enough one of the first events after Switzerland started allowing events was when Richard Hammond sent a Rimac off a cliff when recording for The Grand Tour)

[@russotusso1695]

Not really, track is literally like 1 hour away from San Marino, only reason it was called San Marino GP was because Italy had to have two races, but rules said one race per country. That's also how we ended with European GP, Valencian GP, Luxembourg GP, Pacific GP and few others.
