Topic Reading-Vol.1435-3/16/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
The world smallest kingdom
No need for a crown because he has a palace. Though there are no permanent residents besides the royal family, this kingdom is now visited by enthusiastic divers and its GDP is growing accordingly. Tourism is the only industry and a restaurant is the only business in this tiny island kingdom, Tavolara.
Though it is registered as part of Italy now, it had been recognized its sovereignty by other royal families until about a half century ago.
The current king of this 180-year-old kingdom has privileges that no other majesty can enjoy. Majestic scenery and nature, complete privacy and freedom, no formal duties or obligations.
Enjoy reading and thinking of what the life is like to live in one’s own island.
