The country of Monaco visited the HICM website recently. It is the 118th country to visit the website since August of 2019. We are thankful that they have visited the site.
Monaco "is a sovereign city-state and microstate on the French Riviera a few kilometers west of the Italian region of Liguria, in Western Europe, on the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by France to the north, east and west." Source: (Wikipedia)
"The main and official language of Monaco is French, while Italian is spoken by the principality's sizeable community from Italy. French and Italian are in fact more spoken in the principality today than Monégasque, its historic vernacular language. A dialect of Ligurian, Monégasque is not recognised as an official language; nevertheless, some signage appears in both French and Monégasque, and the language is taught in schools. English is also used. The main and official language of Monaco is French, while Italian is spoken by the principality's sizeable community from Italy.
