Under the dome we can find some famous coffins: Raphael, and the first sovereigns, Vittorio Emanuelle II, Umberto I, and the Queen Margherita.

The Vatican city (Status Civitatis Vaticanae) is a landlocked sovereign city-state whose territory consists of a walled enclave within the city of Rome, on the right side of the Tevere.
With its 0,44 square kilometers, and with a population of around 800 people, it is the smallest independent state in the world by both population and area.
The Vatican became independent the 11 February 1929 with the Lateran Treaty, stipulated by the Prime Minister Benito Mussolini and the cardinal Gasparri, which put an end to the argument between State and Church, and to the Roman Question, born in 1870 with the annexation of the pontifical state to the new Kingdom of Italy.

Until the XV century instead of the square, there was a flowered field; here's the name, Campo De' Fiori.
Here took place several executions, as the one of Giordano Bruno, burnt the 17 february 1600.
In his memory a statue was erected in the centre of the square by Ettore Ferrari, in 1899.
Since 1869 here takes place a street market, whose popular atmosphere is shown in the movie "Campo De' Fiori", 1943, with Anna Magnani and Aldo Fabrizi.
Today Campo De' Fiori is one of the favourite meeting place for both Italian and foreign young people, thanks to the presence of cheap pubs.
