 		 Forty-four hectares (i.e., 100 acres): not much more than a decent golf course. And yet this tiny, trapezoid-shaped land - three-and-a-half times smaller than thePrincipality of Monaco and one-and-a-half times smaller than the Republic of SanMarino - is both renowned and unfamiliar. It is a fundamental site for worship among followers of Roman Catholicism, but also a city within the city of Rome; the core ofthe legal embodiment of the Church's central government, i.e., the Holy See, but alsoan enclave surrounded by the Italian state. It was established on June 7, 1929 (when the Lateran Treaty was ratified, after its signing by the Holy See and Italy on February 11), thus putting an end to the so-called "Roman Question" that had poisoned the relationship between the Kingdom of Italy and the Papal State after the breach of Porta Pia in 1870. From the view point of constitutional law, the Vatican is a unique case: just what kind of state is it? What are the ties that bind the Holy See, the Roman Catholic Church, and the Italian state? What legal norms govern its life? What are its distinctive internal configurations of power and institutions? And what are the rights enjoyed by and the duties required of its citizens
