Andorra's main oddity is that it has two simultaneous rulers, formally known as the Co-Princes, and neither of them is Andorran: one is the Bishop of Urgell and the other the President of France. This makes the latter the world's only republican head of state to also be a reigning monarch, as well as an elected one. The Bishop of Urgell, however, is one of the Roman Catholic religious leader that is also a monarch, the other being the head of the Roman Catholic Church and world's smallest state called Vatican City, the Pope, who serves as its appointer.

Andorra, officially known as the Principality of Andorra ('''Catalan:''' ''Principat d'Andorra'') and also called Principality of the Valleys of Andorra ('''Catalan:''' ''Principat de les Valls d'Andorra''), is a dinky little mountain principality wedged between UsefulNotes/{{France}} and UsefulNotes/{{Spain}}, up in the Pyrenees mountains. Originally part of the lands of the Bishop of Urgell, Andorra managed to stay independent of both France and Spain for most of its history, with a few exceptions - it was gobbled up by Napoleon's France in 1812-13, and France occupied her again in 1933 after a wideboy named Boris Skossyreff declared himself sovereign of Andorra and tried to declare war on the Bishop of Urgell. Once again, French troops marched in in 1936 to prevent Andorra getting sucked into the Spanish civil war, and stayed until they were needed elsewhere in 1940. After that, the country was occupied by [[ThoseWackyNazis Germany]], and would remain thus until the final collapse of German power in Western Europe.
