Rhodes was under the jurisdiction of Italy (1912 - 1943), the occupation of Germany (1943 - 1945) and the military administration of Great Britain (1945 - 1947).
Since 1948, it is part of Greece with standard Greek license plates.
Seborga
Seborga is a 14 ㎢ area West of Genoa which calls itself a "Principality" for historical reasons.
It issues its own stamps, coins, passports and license plates none of which have any validity and are mostly sold to tourists. Vehicles with Seborga "license plates" must also carry Italian plates from the province of Imperia in which the "Principality" lies.
