An Analysis of Five European Microstates
Geoforum, Vol. 6, pp. 187-204, 1975. Pergamon Press Ltd. Printed in Great Britain The Plight of the Lilliputians: an Analysis of Five European Microstates Honor6 M. CATUDAL, Jr., Collegeville, Minn.” Summary: The mini- or microstate is an important but little studied phenomenon in political geography. This article seeks to redress the balance and give these entities some of the attention they deserve. In general, five microstates are examined; all are located in Western Europe-Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco, San Marino and the Vatican. The degree to which each is autonomous in its internal affairs is thoroughly explored. And the extent to which each has control over its external relations is investigated. Disadvantages stemming from its small size strike at the heart of the ministate problem. And they have forced these nations to adopt practices which should be of use to large states. Zusammenfassung: Dem Zwergstaat hat die politische Geographie wenig Beachtung geschenkt. Urn diese Liicke zu verengen, werden hier fiinf Zwergstaaten im westlichen Europa untersucht: Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco, San Marino und der Vatikan. Das Ma13der inneren und lul3eren Autonomie wird griindlich untersucht. Die Kleinheit hat die Zwargstaaten zu Anpassungsformen gezwungen, die such fiir groRe Staaten van Bedeutung sein k8nnten. R&sum& Les Etats nains n’ont g&e fait I’objet d’Btudes de geographic politique. Afin de combler cette lacune, cinq mini-Etats sent examines ici; il s’agit de I’Andorre, du Liechtenstein, de Monaco, de Saint-Marin et du Vatican. Dans quelle mesure ces Etats disposent-ils de l’autonomie interne at ont-ils le contrble de leurs relations extirieures.

We, as States Parties of the Chemical Weapons Convention, condemn in the strongest possible terms the use of a toxic chemical as a weapon in the Russian Federation against Alexei Navalny on 20 August 2020. 2. We welcome the assistance provided by the OPCW Technical Secretariat in the aftermath of Mr. Navalny’s poisoning. OPCW analysis of biomedical samples confirmed the presence of a cholinesterase inhibitor. We note that the cholinesterase inhibitor has been further identified as a nerve agent from a group of chemicals known as “Novichoks”. We have full confidence in the OPCW’s independent expert finding that Mr. Navalny was exposed to a Novichok nerve agent. We note with concern that a Novichok nerve agent was also used in an attack in the United Kingdom in 2018. These agents serve no other purpose than to be used as a chemical weapon. 3. Any poisoning of an individual with a nerve agent is considered a use of a chemical weapon.

Andorra Austria Belgium Denmark Finland France Germany Greece
Andorra Austria Belgium Denmark Finland France Germany Greece Iceland Ireland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Monaco Netherlands Norway Portugal Spain Sweden Switzerland United Kingdom OVERVIEW 96% of energy consumed in Andorra is imported. Since 2010, several initiatives have been undertaken by the government to diversify its energy mix by adding renewable energy sources (hydro, solar, wind, and biomass). Small-scale renewable energy projects supporting the sustainable development of island communities are underway. Public buildings account for the greatest energy demands in the Andorran economy. The Andorran government is promoting uptake of energy efficiency of buildings and renewable energy by way of project competitions. The number of projects in this area is growing every year. In particular, in 2015, the government received 196 proposals, 25.6% more than in 2014. The government of Andorra planned to spend about €500,000 to improve energy efficiency of school buildings in 2016. Among the highest priority projects is insulation of schools in the mountainous area. This project is given priority in order to reduce the annual space-heating diesel consumption of approximately 90,000 liters. The installation of thermostatic screens for better insulation is one of the technologies most promoted for school buildings to implement the plan. Renewable energy in buildings are encouraged as a design feature, and the government offers reduced rate tariffs for the use of solar energy. In all Andorran schools, regular audits and inspections are carried out in order to monitor the implementation of these projects. OVERVIEW The Austrian government has undertaken considerable efforts to promote and implement energy efficiency trends in the buildings sector.

Press Release
Press release The Principality of Andorra and the Vatican City State/The Holy See are now part of the SEPA payment schemes’ geographical scope Brussels, 1 March 2019 – the Principality of Andorra and the Vatican City State/The Holy See are since today part of the geographical scope of the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) payment schemes. From now on, the geographical scope of the SEPA payment schemes consists of the following 36 countries: the 28 EU Member States plus Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Monaco, San Marino, the Principality of Andorra and the Vatican City State/the Holy See. As a result, all existing European Payments Council (EPC) scheme participants should be able to send or to receive SEPA Credit Transfer (SCT), SEPA Instant Credit Transfer (SCT Inst) and SEPA Direct Debit (SDD) transactions to and from SCT, SCT Inst and SDD scheme participants from the Principality of Andorra and the Vatican City State/the Holy See as and when their financial institutions will adhere to these schemes. “The incorporation of Andorra into the Single Euro Payments Area is another step towards the international integration of the Andorran financial place and a new element of competitiveness for Andorran entities and for customers operating from the country,” declared Clàudia Cornella Durany, Secretary of State for International Financial Matters, Govern d'Andorra. René Bruelhart, president of the Vatican’s regulator, the Financial Information Authority (AIF) said: “the successful application to become part of SEPA is a very positive sign. It helps to facilitate payments and harmonises such services. Furthermore, it demonstrates the Holy See’s efforts to enhance financial transparency.” The inclusion of financial institutions from these two states is a natural extension of the SEPA project and demonstrates the European willingness to harmonise electronic payments in a broader area than the European Union.

Andorra's Autonomy
ANDORRA'S AUTONOMY A NDORRA, being a political anomaly, challenges the political geographer to uncover the geographic roots of so exotic a plant. It has more than once been suggested that Andorra's political separation from both its powerful neighbors, France and Spain, derives from isolation. Andorra occupies the tributary valleys of the Segre which are known collectively as the Valira (Fig. 1). These lead into each other via water-level routes and thence continue without barrier into the Segre, which occupies the broadest transverse valley of the central Pyrenees. Therefore it can hardly be thought of as more isolated than other similar Pyrenean valleys, such as the Vall d'Aran-Spanish territory although cut off from the rest of the country by a range of savage mountains, in which the few lofty passes are snow-blocked for half the year. Isolation thus proves a weak environmental reed to lean upon. One may perhaps abandon geography and ascribe the politi- cal separatism to the rugged individualism of the Andorran citizens. Again an undependable support, for the Andorrans comprise but one section of the Catalan people which occupies all the central and eastern Pyrenees as well as their foothills and the plains beyond. Surely the five or six thousand inhabitants of the Valira valleys cannot be assumed to have a greater love for independence than other mountaineers, particularly moun- taineers of their own race and language, occupying almost iden- tically similar valleys. Mutual jealousy between France and Spain is more rarely cited as the explanation of the Andorran political status. Ample proof of such jealousy can be deduced over centuries of history.
