First, let's put a few very appetizing headlines for everyone
That's right, these can be searched online. The seemingly unknown country described in the article is San Marino, which is roughly the story of this small country with a population of less than 32,000 declaring war on the world in World War II, including China, and finally being beaten up honestly.
I wonder if these historical inventors were born as novel writers, how such brain-opening articles were written for them, and what dare they say in order to make money by sucking powder... Dog this article to tell you the facts.
Located on the northeastern side of the Apennine Mountains in Italy, San Marino is a country within a country in Italy with an area of only 61.2 square kilometers. It originated in the early 4th century AD when a Christian named San Marino was persecuted by the Roman Emperor Diocletian and fled to Mount Titano. Since it was originally a stonemason, a monastery was built on the hill. Then some equally persecuted Christians gathered here, and this is where the country of San Marino originated.
Due to its religious character, it was also recognized as an independent state by the Holy See in the medieval century. In addition, San Marino is small and not strategic, so it has always been isolated from the world. Whether it was during the Napoleonic conquest or the unification of Italy, everyone allowed this small country to maintain its independence.
During World War II, San Marino was naturally a neutral country, but the country's ruling party was the Fascist Party. Although this fascists are similar to the fascists in Italy and Germany in centralizing power and fighting other social parties, the country is small after all, not as exaggerated as they are, and there is no anti-Semitic decree.
So what's going on with the declaration of war? On September 17, 1940, there was an article in a small, inconspicuous section of the New York Times. The general idea is that San Marino ended the war against Germany and declared war on Britain as Anita.com. The report was headed up as Bytheunitedpress (from The United Press Agency)
However, this news is also a baffling look, San Marino ended the 25-year war with Germany... It's the obvious stall title. San Marino did declare war on Italy on June 3, 1915, but San Marino sent two 10-man medical teams... After the end of the First World War, Austria-Hungary disintegrated, and the war ended. The 25-year war with Germany was too nonsensical...
Then the declaration of war on Britain was not such a thing, and a US diplomatic document published in 1944 also showed that San Marino conveyed his intentions to Britain through the United States, but did not declare war on Britain.
During World War II, San Marino had a population of only 14,000 people, not 32,000 (32,000 of which were written according to the current population), and the size of the army was about 950 (written by the New York Times), and it was stupid to declare war on the world?
Of course, although San Marino remained neutral, the effects of the war were still there. In the summer of 1943, with the allied landings in Italy, the Italian fascist regime collapsed and Mussolini was placed under house arrest. The San Marino Fascist Party also stepped down, and the new government remained neutral. But with Mussolini's rescue and the re-establishment of the Italian Social Republic in northern Italy, the Fascist Party in San Marino returned to power in April 1944. This led the Allies to believe that San Marino had fallen to the Axis and helped the Germans transport weapons by rail, so in June 1944 they were bombed four times by the ROYAL Air Force, killing 63 people.
However, San Marino said that there were no troops from other countries stationed on his side... For this matter, the British later paid compensation. There is now a stink bomb dropped by the British hanging from the walls of San Marino.
In July 1944, a sign on the border between San Marino and Italy read that San Marino was a neutral country.
However, during the Battle of San Marino from 17 to 20 September 1944, a German army stationed at a nearby hill as an artillery observation post was defeated by the Allies, the wounded and defeated soldiers fled and occupied the town of San Marino for repairs, and then the British army relivenged the town, but the British army left the area the next day, that is, on the 21st, and San Marino's relationship with World War II was the same.
There is no story of declaring war on the whole world, no population of 32,000, no annihilation of the country by the German army of 200 people....
