Native Monégasques are a minority of the coastal Mediterranean principality, which is the wealthiest, second-smallest, and most densely populated country in the world. Monégasques represent only 24% of the total population; foreigners of 140 different nationalities make up the majority. In fact, Monégasque nationality is difficult to obtain as it implies various rights and advantages unaccessible to simple Monaco residents. If it weren’t for their nationality, most of Monaco’s citizens wouldn’t be able to afford to live in their own country.
