Did you know that the Vatican is a country--the smallest in the world? Find out the amazing history of the headquarters of the Catholic Church.

It''s time to elect a new pope. Hundreds of thousands of people gather in front of St. Peter''s Basilica to learn who will be the next leader of the Catholic Church.
