As a result of tragic circumstances, Lucien Grimaldi came to reign over Monaco in 1505. It would always be a mystery whether he accidentally killed his elder brother Jean II who ruled the country at that time, in an altercation over the sale of Monaco to the Venetians.
It is no secret that Monaco has attracted the rich and famous for many decades. Becoming a princess, Grace Kelly opened this heavenly place for her Hollywood friends. Alfred Hitchcock loved the Principality not less than the Côte d'Azur.
