“Small Spaces in High Places: The Geography of Andorra, Liechtenstein and
San Marino” As members of the micro states of Europe, Andorra, Liechtenstein and San Marino have managed to maintain their sovereign nests in the highlands of the Pyrenees, Alps and Apennines respectively. This course explores common geographic threads that run through these states including their political status in the European Union and the United Nations, their relatively high per-capita incomes grounded firmly in tourism, and the role of ethnicity in nationhood.
