For a country with a population of 30,000, this small landlocked country plays host to an estimated 2 million visitors yearly. One reason tourists flock to San Marino is its Mediterranean climate.
As San Marino is a microstate completely landlocked by Italy, Sammarinese cuisine is strongly similar to the Italian cuisine, especially that of the adjoining Emilia-Romagna and Marche regions. However, although partly based on a typical Mediterranean diet, it also draws on a richer eclectic cuisine and has a number of its own unique dishes and products.
San Marino, with a population of only 30,000 and a per capita income of $46,900, providing a basic service like education for free to its citizens would be a natural precedent.
