The Vatican

Set in the heart of Rome and separated by a surrounding wall, The Vatican is the smallest state in the world. It spreads across 0.2 square miles and has a population of only 770 people. Despite its size, The Vatican is a state simply because it is viewed as the spiritual center of the Catholic Church and the home of The Pope.
