Rome/Vatican
Vatican City (Italian: Stato della Città del Vaticano; Latin: Status Civitatis Vaticanae) is the world's smallest country both by area and by population, and is the centre of Catholicism. This tiny country completely within Rome is packed with more history and artwork than most cities in the world, and indeed many countries. St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel are all in Vatican City.
