Which European microstate covers 468 square kilometers?

Andorra is the European microstate covering about 468 square kilometers.

Tucked into the eastern Pyrenees between France and Spain, Andorra has an area of approximately 468 square kilometers. That makes it one of Europe’s smallest states, although it is larger than Liechtenstein, San Marino, and Monaco among the answer choices.

The country is mountainous rather than flat. Its highest point is Coma Pedrosa, rising to about 2,946 meters, and its valleys are drained by the Gran Valira river. Andorra la Vella, the capital, stands at roughly 1,023 meters and is often described as Europe’s highest capital city.

Andorra’s unusual political history is another reason it attracts attention. The 1278 paréage established shared sovereignty between the bishop of Urgell and the count of Foix; today, the French president and the bishop are its co-princes. Andorra adopted its modern parliamentary constitution in 1993 and uses the euro despite not being an EU member.
