The Third Secret
So, here's another book quote from "The Third Secret" by Steve Berry. It's probably not true, but it's still kinda interesting to me.
"The tiny nation did not occupy one of the hills upon which Rome was first built, but instead crowned Mons Vaticanus, the only one of the seven ancient designations people still remembered. Fewer than two hundred were actual citizens, and even fewer held a passport. Not one soul had ever been born there, few besides popes died there, and even fewer were buried there. Its government was one of the world's last remaining absolute monarchies and, in a twist Michener had always thought ironic, the Holy See's United Nations representative could not sign the worldwide declaration of human rights because, inside the Vatican, there was no religious freedom."
