The XX century: international recognitions and admission to the UN Previous

San Marino is now an accepted and recognized political entity. Having obtained the first seal it seeks others beyond the alps. Every treaty (the subject is irrelevant) represents a recognition of sovereignty.

After 40 years of efforts criminal extradition treaties are signed. First of all with Great Britain, then with Holland, Belgium and the U.S.A.

In 1908 another step forward. Membership is granted of the International Institute of agriculture. For the first time San Marino belongs to an international organization.

In 1971 the country nominates ambassadors, it also joins The Council of Europe.

It already has a place at the C.S.C.E., becomes a member of the United Nations, organization the highest assembly of all the worlds nations.

It is stated that all member nations have equal rights irrespective of their size and geographic location.

This is the most elevated example of “NEMINI TENERI” the concept of liberty conceived on the Titano by a small group of mountain folk in silent isolation, next to the chapel of a saint during the first centuries of the Christian middle ages. And then defended with every means against all, before finally obtaining the recognition of everyone.
