Smallest Countries in the World by Area & Population
It is surprising to know that there are countries which are smaller than the parks in a city. The population of the country is much less than a society in any metropolitan city. The smallest country in the world in area, as well as the community, is Vatican City. It has a total area of 0.49 square kilometre, which is as large as our day present society. The residents of the country are just 825, which is very few when compared to some villages in India.
Here we furnish the list of top 10 countries in the world with the smallest geographical area along with least population. Which, when combined, would be just a bit larger than the State of Rhode Island. From the Vatican to Palau, these independent nations which range in size from 108 acres to only over 191 square miles, have established themselves as contributors to the world’s economy, politics, and even human rights initiatives.
