Papal Dominions

The Papal Dominions, also known as Cislatinia, are a confederation of 20 duchies organised under a theocratic constitutional monarchy. Often mistakenly referred to as the Papacy, the country is best known as the seat of the Catholic Holy See, and as the place from which most popes have come throughout history; however, the pontiff has no de jure political power in the country, whereas a ‘Great Apostle’ also named by the College of Cardinals does, as monarch and head of state.
