Monaco,officially the Principality of Monaco,is a sovereign city-state and microstate on the French Riviera a few kilometres west of the Italian region of Liguria,in Western Europe,on the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by France to the north,east and west. The principality is home to 38,682 residents,of whom 9,486 are Monégasque nationals;it is widely recognised as one of the most expensive and wealthiest places in the world. The official language of the principality is French. In addition,Monégasque,English and Italian are spoken and understood by many residents.
The Principality of Monaco is a sovereign and independent state,linked closely to France by the Treaty of July 1918,which was formally noted in Article 436 of the Treaty of Versailles of 1919. The foreign policy of Monaco is one illustration of this accord:France has agreed to defend the independence and sovereignty of Monaco,while the Monegasque Government has agreed to exercise its sovereign rights in conformity with French interests,whilst at the same time maintaining complete independence. Since then,the relations between the sovereign states of France and Monaco have been further defined in the Treaty of 1945 and the Agreement of 1963.

The postal history of Monaco can be traced to the principality’s first postmark in 1704. Stampless covers are known with both manuscript and handstamp postmarks for Monaco and Fort d'Hercule;as the principality was once much larger,postmarks of the communes of Menton and Roquebrune prior to their 1848 secession might also be included. Monaco used Sardinian stamps from 1851 until 1860,when by the Treaty of Turin,Sardinia ceded to France the surrounding county of Nice and relinquished its protectorate over Monaco;French stamps with Monaco or Monte-Carlo postmarks were used thereafter. Two forms of cancellation are known for the French period. With the first,the postmark is on the cover away from the stamps;an obliterator with an identifying post office number 4222,or later 2387,inside a diamond of ink dots cancelled the actual stamps. The second applied the postmark directly on the stamps,as both a date stamp and cancel. All of these postal forerunners,particularly usages of Sardinian stamps with Monaco cancels,are far more valuable than the same stamps postally used in the issuing countries.
