One of those horrible theocracies.  On the other hand, they only have a few city blocks or so.

I'm not even sure if the Holy See is the smallest nation on Earth, actually. Sealand is smaller, I'm uncertain about Seborga or Hutt River Province, and there's some medieval group (Knights of Malta?) that used to hold several Med. Isles but now only has a street address in Rome to its name.

I don't believe Sealand is recognized by the UN as a nation.

The Republic of Minerva and Sealand are both legitimite nations who should be recognized.

Indeed!  The Knights of Malta is the smallest nation on the planet.

Interesting holdover from days of yore. Smiley No real need to DO anything to it, though...it serves its purpose.
