Some of the previous answers are quite wrong. Aruba is an island of the Netherlands Antilles and belongs to the Netherlands. Rhode Island is a state of the U.S. Madagascar is a huge island (though also a country). St. Kitts-Nevis is an island belonging to the U.K. The Marshall Islands are not a country, or even a true section of one.
The smallest country in the world is Vatican City. The nation is only 0.2 square miles. It is surrounded by the city of Roma (Rome), Italy, but is entirely independent.
The Vatican City is located at 12.5º east longitude and just south of 42º north latitude. This is about the central western portion of Italy.
Vatican City is much smaller than Liechtenstein, Malta, San Marino, and Luxembourg, even smaller than Monaco, Nauru, and Tuvalu.

The Vatican City, the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church, is the world's smallest country. Located entirely within the city of Rome, Italy, the Vatican City (also known as the Holy See) is 0.2 square miles (0.44 km2) in area.

I think the smallest real country would be Liechtenstein, between Switzerland and Austria. I think it is like 12 miles by 8 miles.

I think where the Vatican is in Rome. It is its own country and I think it's the smallest.

It's Vatican... because in the time of Pepin the Short's reign in Rome, the most historical and the most significant thing that he have done, is awarding vatican to the christian church... and the papal bull will rule in there.... The Vatican would be free from his laws and they can have their own
