From prehistory to the legend of Santo Marino

Millions of years ago a prehistoric sea covered Mount Titano and all the surrounding area. With the gradual withdrawal of the waters, man began to populate the slopes of the mountain until, in Roman times, an ascetic named Marino arrived from Dalmatia: around him the first tiny village developed which in the following centuries will become the Republic of San Marino.

The conquest and defense of freedom

After Marino's death, the village expanded, fortified itself with castles and walls, became a municipality with its own institutions and laws, fought strenuously to obtain and preserve its own autonomy. Over the centuries, the Papal State has tried several times to put an end to this independence, but in vain: alliances, wars, diplomatic skills have allowed the San Marino people to increasingly assume the appearance of a free people.

Napoleon, Garibaldi and the two world wars

The Republic defends its independence Napoleon I and later Napoleon III were fascinated by the small Republic of San Marino, helping it, protecting it, and helping to make it known throughout the world. Likewise, the Risorgimento, Garibaldi and Vittorio Emanuele II, the first king of Italy, firmly supported its right to be a sovereign state. Not even the wars and the many problems of the twentieth century have affected its desire to remain independent: in 1992, for this reason, it became a full member of the United Nations .
