The map above shows that Europe’s 6 microstates (Vatican, Monaco, San Marino, Liechtenstein, Andorra and Malta) could all comfortably fit within London’s M25.
And if you could rearrange them slightly you could easily fit them within the borders of Greater London.
Here’s how they stack up:
- Vatican: area: 0.49 km2 (0.19 sq mi), pop: 764, GDP: $15.5 million USD
- Monaco: area: 2.08 km2 (0.80 sq mi), pop: 38,367, GDP: $8.8 billion USD
- San Marino: area: 61.19 km2 (23.63 sq mi), pop: 35,436, GDP: $3 billion USD
- Liechtenstein: area: 160.50 km2 (61.97 sq mi), pop: 40,015, GDP: $5 billion USD
- Andorra: area: 467.63 km2 (180.55 sq mi), pop: 85,863, GDP: $6 billion USD
- Malta: area: 316 km2 (122 sq mi), pop: 542,051, GDP: $37 billion USD
And here’s how the all compare to London:
| All 6 Microstates | London | |
|---|---|---|
| Area | 1007.89 km2 (389.15 sq mi) | 1,572 km2 (607 sq mi ) |
| Population | 742,496 | 8,866,180 |
