Speaking to People this week, Albert said: "I'm certain that it's going to be an incredible ceremony and a very moving one.
"I'm certain His Majesty will add his own 'personal touches' to the ceremonies," he added. "But what those will be, I'm sure I don't know."

Of course, Albert is not technically a king. He may be the scion of the oldest dynasty in Europe – but he is titled Prince.

So, Monaco's rulers styled themselves as prince and princess and that, by definition, made the nation a principality, or one ruled by prince or princess.
