San Marino is older, but I'm not sure if its borders have changed.

Thank you for clarifying. English is my second language and grammar is not my strong skill.
Nitpicking: Andorra doesn't "pay tax to be autonomous" to Spain, nor to France for that matters. Andorra is the oldest country in Europe whose borders haven't changed since it was created (1278). It's a tiny country but it's a sovereign country. It has its own parliament and its official language (which is neither spanish nor french but catalan).
Andorrans pay less taxes because Andorra is autonomous.
