“autonomous principality” – is there a non-autonomous principality anywhere in the world??
“… (after Vatican City)…” – since when has the Vatican (false: Vatican City) become a principality??
“… most famous for it’s [sic] Monte Carlo casino operations…” – False, most famous for its (mind the correction) Casino (not operations).
“… Monaco’s conqueror …” – False, Monaco has not been conquered; it didn’t need to be comquered.
All in all, a truly daft and sad posting of yours!
All proof that I need to get the game when it comes out in English.
