Which is the smallest country in the world?

Size is determined by land area when identifying the smallest country. Vatican City covers about 0.44 square kilometers (44 hectares), which is much smaller than Monaco (~2.02 km²), Nauru (~21 km²), and San Marino (~61 km²). Because of its tiny footprint, Vatican City is the smallest sovereign state in this set, a unique city-state enclaved within Rome established as its own entity in 1929.
