The v3.2 stress index is a six-axis composite of energy and food exposure, geopolitical pressure, fiscal headroom, demography and supply concentration, normalised to a 0–1 scale.
San Marino is an enclaved micro-state surrounded by Italy, from which it draws all of its electricity, gas, fuel and most of its food. It has no domestic energy resources and negligible agriculture. Supply security depends entirely on uninterrupted links with Italy.
San Marino has no significant lakes or rivers and relies on supply from surrounding Italy.
No major lake or reservoir
