    None of these.

    Hmm... certainly a question to chew on.

    Is the answer the Principality of Sealand and the Principality of Wy?

    It rules out San Marino then because Republic of San Marino and City of San Marino. It also rules out the Principality of Monaco and Monaco. It also rules out the Vatican City State and the Vatican City.
    The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

    Difficult as 'city' is often added unofficially to differentiate. Having said that, how about
    Luxembourg,
    Abu Dhabi
    Dubai
    Sharjah
    Oman
    Jamaica
    Trinidad
    Panama
    Djibouti

    I think Mexico is ruled out

    ^

    The capital of Luxembourg is Luxembourg City
    The capital of Oman is Muscat
    The capital of Jamaica is Kingston
    The capital of Trinidad and Tobago is Port of Spain
    The capital of Panama is Panama City

    Sorry, other than that I have nothing else to offer
