The State of the Vatican City is the
smallest country in the world, a landlocked enclave
surrounded by the city of Rome in Italy.
The Vatican is the home of the Pope,
and forms the territory of the Holy See, the central
authority of the Roman Catholic Church.
The Vatican is located upon the Vatican
Hill.
As an independent state, the Vatican
has the right to to send and receive diplomatic representatives,
including foreign embassies, which are located in the
Italian part of Rome due to the very limited territory
of the state.
This means, very curiously, that Italy
hosts its own Embassy of Italy. |
