บท 287: Chapter 287: The Pope's Decision

Vatican City, the smallest country in the world, with an area of only 0.44 square kilometers and less than two thousand people. However, no country or power in the world dares to underestimate it because it is the holy land in the hearts of over a billion Catholics worldwide—the seat of the Roman Curia headed by the Pope!

This "country within a country" located within Italy, lacks fields, agriculture, industry, or mineral resources within its borders. Even essential goods for the citizens' production and life, such as water, electricity, food, fuel, and gas, are all supplied by Italy.

However, it is a sovereign state with a combined political and religious leadership, and has established diplomatic relations with over a hundred countries and regions around the world.
