The coat of arms of the republic is decorated with three tower tower with the inscription Libertas (Lat. Freedom) and he expresses the amazing preservation of the independence of a small country surrounded by large states throughout its rich history.

Each part in the territory should be unarmed – he also did not make an exception. San Marino is the first city in which a monument to Giuseppe Garibaldi was installed if you talk about Italy.
There are a lot of armory stores in the republic, and in general, trade is made on stream as San Marino is a duty-free area.
