The Genoese built a fortress on the site of present day Monaco in 1215. The current ruling Grimaldi family temporarily seized control in 1297, and again in 1331, but were not able to permanently secure their holding until 1419. Economic development was spurred in the late 19th century with a railroad linkup to France and the opening of a casino. Since then, the principality's mild climate, splendid scenery, and gambling facilities have made Monaco world famous as a tourist and recreation center.
TV Monte-Carlo operates a TV network, and Radio Monte-Carlo has both an Italian-language and a French-language network. There are a few private radio stations operating in the principality. No daily newspapers are published in Monaco, but some French and Italian papers cover news from the principality.
