[edit] Monte Carlo Is A Town
I changed this page because the districts in Monaco are officialy counted as seperate towns. 3 April 2005
I'm sorry, but this is impossible : Monte Carlo is not a town, it is only a small (but famous) part of Monaco. Monaco is :
- A country.
- A town.
- A capital.
(yes, all in one). Iznogoud 13:38, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
Actually you are wrong as far as I was aware, Monaco was divided into several very small districts. Monte Carlo being one of them. It looks like your outnumbered. Mac Domhnaill 02:55, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- Being outnumbered is irrelevant. Does either of you have a source to cite? — Dan | talk 02:56, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Is It Monte Carlo or Monte-Carlo?
Is it spelled with a hyphen or without? 3 April 2005
- The spelling in French (the official language of Monaco) is Monte-Carlo. You will find this spelling in all major French dictionaries and encyclopaedias line Le Larousse or Le Robert as well as on the webpages of the government of Monaco (http://www.gouv.mc/). --thomasgraz 07:36, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Capital of Monaco
Actually I think the capital of Monaco is MONACOVILLE
No, sorry (see above).
[edit] Casino was not inspiration for Bond film
The Casion in Monaco wasn't the inspiration for the casino gambling scene and title for the Ian Fleming novel of "Casino Royale". This honour belongs to the Casino Estoril near Lisbon, Portugal. Ian Fleming famously visited the casino in Estoril. Source: Tourist Office Estoril. I'll delete the wrong sentence. Olagorie 15:35, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
