São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
Domagnano is a castle municipality in the northeast of San Marino, located in the southern foothills of the Apennine Mountains, next to the Italian region of Marche, and is one of the oldest settlements among the nine San Marino municipalities. The town is famous for its well-preserved medieval architectural complex, including the ruins of the 13th-century Rocca (fortress), the ancient church of Santa Maria, etc., with stone paths and old houses exuding a strong medieval flavor. With a population of about 1,000, Domaniano's economy is based on handicrafts and tourism, and the annual "Medieval Festival" attracts tourists to experience traditional folklore. As a "living fossil of San Marino history", it is not only an important carrier of the country's cultural heritage, but also an ideal destination for tourists who want to explore the history and nature of San Marino, thanks to its peaceful and idyllic landscape and its unique geographical location.
