As of today the world population is estimated to be 7 billion. The world's most five popular countries are China, India, United States, Indonesia and Brazil. But do you know which state has the smallest population of 800?.
Vatican city is the smallest independent state in Rome. Vatican City is often referred as the Holy See. Vatican City was established in 1929 and it is ruled by the Pope. Even though the Vatican is the smallest independent state in the world it has it's own money, passport, newspapers, radio station and railroad system. Vatican City also has it's own flag and anthem like any other independent nation. But it does not have their own official language. Italian is their everyday language. Vatican is a beautiful place to visit. The popular places to visit are St. Peter's Basilica and the Sistine Chapel.Those two places have very rich history. St.Peter Basilica first opened in 326AD. The temple calls St. Peter because he was the founder of the Church in Rome.The Sistine Chapel was built in 1475 for Pope Sixtus IV. The Sistine Chapel is the Vatican's ultimate building and crowing Glory.
Even though the Vatican City has the most smallest population in the world but they still live like any independent nation.
