Why is San Marino a country? History of San Marino in 12 Minutes

A priest, later known as Saint Marinus, is credited for founding San Marino on September 3, 301 AD. He is believed to have left modernday Croatia for the Italian city of Rimini and eventually sought refuge in Monte Titano in response to the Diocletianic Persecution. Once in Monte Titano, Marinus built a monastery and intended to remain in the area and live the rest of his life as a hermit. This is what is seen as the founding of both the Republic of San Marino and its capital city of the same name.
