Papal States, Pius IX, 1846 - 1878
|Papal| |States|, |Papal| |States,| |Pius| |IX,| |1846| |-| |1878|, Pius IX was Pope from 1846 to 1878, the longest verified papal reign. He was the last pope who was also a secular ruler. As monarch of the Papal States, he ruled over some 3 million people. In 1870, the Papal States were seized by force of arms by the newly founded Kingdom of Italy. Thereafter he refused to leave Vatican City, declaring himself a "prisoner of the Vatican." The matter was only resolved in international law by the Lateran Treaty agreed in 1929 between the Kingdom of Italy and the Holy See, the latter receiving financial compensation for the loss of the Papal States and Italy recognized the Vatican City State as an independent territorial sovereign entity in international law known as the Holy See. The Vatican, as before, and still today, maintains diplomatic relations with many other nations.
