You are correct! Lesotho is entirely contained within South africa.

There is one more to be found. It is in Europe. Hint: My research tells me it is the country in Europe with the smallest population.

[CGM]

Its in France but forgot the name

Nah, the only one in France that comes close to qualifying is Monaco, of which Monte Carlo is a part. But Monaco is on the Mediterranean, so it is not completely surrounded by France.

CGM is one of them the military order of malta its in italy right by the vatican as well and even smaller.

[Scrap]

San Remo Italy,

[CGM]

hmmm.....

Malta is an Island nation in the Mediterranean. It is south of Sicily. You are getting rather warm, though I don't know about right next to the Vatican.

Just to revisit, we are looking for the name of a landlocked European country that is completely within another country, and it is not the Vatican.

Here is an interesting little tidbit that I did not know. This country was founded in 301 AD, making it the world's oldest sovereign state, or at least the world's oldest republic. Another point of interest is that until 1463, its land area consisted of a single mountain.

Scrap and Armin are getting warm. Not San Remo

CGM I wasn't talking about matla, I was talking about the sovereign military order of malta which is basically like a building in rome that under international law is considered sovereign.
