Description
From 1816-1919 one of the first mini-nation states existed. The website tells some of its history, stating that: “It had the form of a wedge of cake and was situated south of the present Three-country-point near Vaals. It was rightly called a mini state, as it measured only 344 hectares and had a circumference of 11 km. Originally, there were only 256 inhabitants.
However, for the longest period of its existence it formed a Four-country-point together with Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany.”
