Inside the Secret Country Erased from Maps (what are they hiding?)

We traveled to Rome to investigate the Sovereign Order of Malta, a landless entity with its own passports, currency, buildings, and diplomatic status. We visited the Vatican during the conclave, explored the Order’s headquarters and embassy, tried to meet its representatives, and discovered its post office and stamps. After the new pope was announced, we returned to the city’s celebrations and headed to the Aventine Keyhole as we continued searching for answers.
