San Marino, a landlocked microstate in Southern Europe, is situated upon rugged terrain with the Apennine Mountains dominating its landscape. The nation has a small population, which is largely concentrated in the capital city, also named San Marino, and other urban areas. Despite its small size and challenging topography, San Marino has a well-developed infrastructure. The state has embraced digital technologies, with a high internet penetration rate and comprehensive mobile network coverage. It was the first European country to have a 5G mobile network, demonstrating its forward-thinking approach to telecommunications. Renewable energy is not yet a significant contributor to the nation’s power supply, but there is potential for growth in this sector.
