Hi, after reading previous postings about highest
points in small countries, I found an internet link
that you all might want to check out. Of course, it
may or may not represent actual highest point down to
the most accurate measurements done by their
surveyors. The website said the highest point is
taken from Google link.

Listing the highest points of small countries in
Europe by name, feet (meters), and
Latitude/Longtitude)
San Marino--Monte Titano 2,457 ft (749 m) 43.91N
12.45W
Andorra --Coma Pedrosa 9,665 ft (2,946 m) 42.58N 1.51W
Vatican City--Vatican Hill 246 ft (75 m) 41.91N 12.45W
Liechtenstein--Grauspitz 8,527 ft (2,599 m) 47.06N
9.58W
Monaco--Mont Agel 459 ft (140 m) 43.70N 7.40W
For the discussion of Italy's highest point, it says:
Mont Blanc (Monte Bianco) 15,771 ft (4,807 m) 45.83N
6.86N
It also mentioned that France claims Mont Blanc as the
highest point as well. Switzerland has Durfourspitze
as its highest point, too.
Be noted that when I clicked on a country name
hyperlink , it lead me to CIA- The World Factbook. I
recalled that previous posting made months ago said
that CIA website isn't reliable for accurate
information. Correct me if I'm mistaken.
