Vatican City is the world's smallest nation--less than half the size of New York City's Central Park. But this tiny city-state in the middle of Rome, the spiritual and temporal center of the Roman Catholic Church, wields power and influence equal to the mightiest nations on earth. This book traces the 2000-year history of the Vatican, from ancient Rome to the 21st century, and looks at how it evolved from a tiny Christian shrine into one of the world's greatest museums, and a major player in international affairs.
