Monaco is the second smallest country in the world. Located east of France and on the Italian border, it is only natural that the country’s roots stem from both countries. Although French is the main language spoken, it is important to remember that Monaco is not in France and is in fact its own country. If you confuse the two, you might offend the locals. Speaking of offending the locals, if you wish to visit a casino, please don’t invite them. I’m not much of a gambler but it was striking to me that all the casinos are strictly for tourists and international guests. Monegasques (people from Monaco) are not allowed to enter or gamble in their own country. You can only enter a casino if you work there; otherwise everyone else is strictly forbidden by law.
