Lateran Treaties (11 Feb. 1929) Agreements between
Mussolini and Pope Pius IX which settled the dispute between the secular Italian state and the papacy which had been raging since the territories governed by the Pope had been integrated into a unified Italy 1860–70. The treaties re-established a miniscule papal state comprising 0.44 km
2 (0.17 sq. miles),
Vatican City. In return, the Roman
Catholic Church gave up its opposition to the Italian state. An additional treaty affirmed Roman Catholicism as the state religion, while in a financial treaty Italy agreed to pay the Pope 1.75 billion lire in compensation for loss of papal territory because of Italian reunification. The treaties were revised by the Concordat of 1984, in which the Italian state realized the separation of church and state.
