What is the smallest independant main land country in the world ?

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. http://geography.about.com/library/faq/blqzsmalles

Oddly enough, also in Rome there is the headquarters - basically just a building - of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta which many people believe to be an independent state, too. It does issue passports, mints coins and issues postage stamps. It attended the original Geneva Conference and has observer status at the United Nations. I'm not totally convinced that it really qualifies, but make your own mind up, after reading the material you'll find by clicking http://www.worldstatesmen.org/Malta_knights.htm
