Monaco: History of a Micro-state is a three-part documentary series that peels back the glittering facade of the world's second-smallest country. While one in two residents is a millionaire, the principality's real story is far more complex—shaped by suppressed revolts, strategic alliances, and political scheming across seven centuries. The Grimaldi family's iron grip on power has transformed Monaco from a modest Mediterranean settlement into a playground for the ultra-wealthy, but that transformation came at a cost. This series examines the hidden machinations behind the yachts and casinos, revealing how a tiny state survived and thrived through cunning diplomacy and ruthless consolidation of power. Discover the intrigue that built modern Monaco.
