Discovery








Little did i realize just today that Monaco, one of the list of places i wanted to visit most, is a Monarchy itself. In other words, it is a country! 2nd smallest Monarchy in the world, the other being the Vatican City.

Yea i am amazaed by this fact because all these long while, for years... i thought it was a city part of France. Even in football, the A.S Monaco team plays in the French Football Lique.

Some basic knowledge of Monaco i've learnt today;

it has the highest police force per citizen ratio, 500 over police force against 30+k population lol.
it is much smaller than Singapore
France is responsible for its Military defenses, for it is surrounded, bordered by France on all 3 corners except the Mediterranean Sea
nearest way of transport to Monaco is the railway services from Nice, France.
it is the Las Vegas of Europe :) of cos being famous of the Monte Carlo and Grand Prix
