    Each fortnight, we give the world globe a spin and see where we land. Then we take the kids of Australia on an audio excursion to visit that country and its people. Join your captain, Christie Kijurina, on an audio adventure. Today, we’re flying to Vatican City, the smallest country in the world, completely surrounded by Rome, and home to the Catholic Church. From its beginnings as a marshy patch of land on the edge of ancient Rome to a place of emperors, early Christians, and centuries-old traditions, this tiny nation has a history that stretches back thousands of years.
