Vatican City: A Sovereign Enclave Within Italy

While Vatican City is a well-known name, many people may not know its location. This sovereign city-state, recognized as an independent country, is nestled within the borders of Italy. Originally part of Rome, the Vatican City gained its status through the Lateran Treaty of 1929.

The boundary between Italy and the Vatican is by the entry point of St. Peter’s Square, connected to the majestic St. Peter’s Basilica, serving as a symbolic marker of the Vatican’s distinct sovereignty.
