The Nation Within A City, Using Travel To See the Secrets
Jun 8th 2008travelTravel Insurance
Vatican City is a sovereign city-state whose territory consists of 108 acres and is almost completely walled, and situated within the city of Rome, Italy.
It is the smallest independent nation in the world created in 1929. The Head of State is the Pope, who as the supreme executive, legislative, and judicial authority is also the Head of Government.
In 2004, there was a count of 114 Billion Catholics in the world. So it may be well worth your time to visit Rome again and revisit the nation behind the wall in Rome.
There is no doubt that the little nation within the huge city holds lots of secrets, yet, I can’t help but believe that these same secrets are in plain sight in other parts of the world! After all, the Roman Catholic Church is not the oldest religion in the world, only the largest.
To get to the truths behind the truths we may have to travel to more then one location. It has always been my belief that each destination holds a part of the truth concerning world (religion) history travel and each location will show and give you a glimpse of their piece of the puzzle if we would only visit. (Hence the Travel 360 slogan: Travel is Education at its Best)
It is also my belief that to see Vatican City more clearly, you may have to visit, the Holy Land and Egypt. When we read about world (religious) history we may forget; However, when you visit world history, you never forget! And in time, the truths that are not written, are revealed.
Because I am not a scholar, I do not feel comfortable saying more then I have said. However, if you are a world traveler, we would love to publish your thoughts on how travel has changed your life. Please, email your articles to be shared with thousands of people from all over the world who visit the www.travel360degrees.com travel site to read personal travel articles.
