Grimaldi
In 1297 the principality was
acquired by the house of Grimaldi, a Genoese family. In 1793, during the French
Revolution, the Grimaldi were dispossessed and their principality was annexed by
France. By the terms of the Treaty of Vienna, in 1815, the principality was made
a protectorate of the kingdom of Sardinia. In 1861 Monaco was restored as an
independent state under the guardianship of France. In 1993 Monaco was admitted
to the United Nations.
