# Monaco Mareterra

In the 18th century, Monaco sold 90% of its land to France.

Monaco has one of the highest population densities in the world.

The cost per square meter is one of the highest in the world.

Over the years, Monaco has reclaimed land from the sea.

The new district of Mareterra is being built on reclaimed land.
