One of the most interesting aspects of the Catholic Church is the Vatican City. Officially an independent city-state surrounded entirely by Rome, Italy, the Vatican is the smallest sovereign state in the world by both area and population.
As of now, the Catholic Church recognizes over 10,000 saints, each canonized through a meticulous process that often spans several decades. These saints come from diverse backgrounds and eras.

Archives, one of the

decrees, synod proceedings,
and royal correspondence.

The Catholic Church has been a major patron of the arts for centuries, commissioning works from some of history’s greatest artists like Michelangelo, Raphael, and Leonardo da Vinci.
