For its population of 33 persons, it was considered the smallest of any comune (municipality) in Italy in an area of 13.8 square kilometres (5.3 sq mi).[1] The fact that few couples decided to become resident or have children produced the effect, but this record is now held by the comune (municipality) of Pedesina.
