Italian term
si svolgeva per lo più all’interno
Italian to English
Art/Literary
Il principio è valido ancora oggi e motiva l’esistenza dello Stato della Città del Vaticano; ma in un’epoca in cui la forza delle armi era ancora ritenuta quasi l’unica garanzia di auto protezione e il processo economico si svolgeva per lo più all’interno del Paese, che aveva perciò bisogno di una certa vastità territoriale, era difficile immaginare come uno stato potesse vivere e rimanere autonomo se privato di queste risorse.
The principle is still valid today and motivates the existence of the Vatican City State; but in an age in which the force of arms was thought nearly the only guarantee of self- protection and the economic process carried out in the Country internally, the need for a certain territorial expanse as it were made it difficult to imagine that one could survive and remain independent if deprived of these resources.

I somehow don't see a process occurring or taking place. The reference is to the fact that many countries were basically self-sufficient.
