The official languages of the people who run the City State are Italian and Latin. Its chief executive, and supreme authority of the Church is the Pope. The Swiss Guard is responsible for protecting him and the entire state. If we had to quickly agree on a schedule to perform in the City, have places of which we could never do without. Nor could it, since all the historical material / cultural finds itself occupying the same perimeter. The Holy See, the highest institution of government of the Catholic Church, the Basilica of St. Peter, St. Peter’s Square and the Vatican Museums.

Just enough to say that the Vatican is the one who gives sovereignty to the Holy See, so you can develop your business, and so understand the differences. But for tourists who come here this is not only to attract its historical connotation and its religious importance but also its beautiful views. Its territory stretches over a hill west of the Tiber River, separating the Italian capital by a wall.
