Question

英语翻译
Size is not a criterion in our definition of what constitutes a country.A country need only be an independent state,with distinct territorial boundaries,and its own government.This is a true blessing for Vatican City,as,weighing in at a mere 0.17 miles,it holds the title of being the smallest country in the world.
Prior to 1870,however,political control by papal governments in central Italy spanned approximately 16.000 square miles.In 1870,the Kingdom of Italy,in a shift of political power,established Rome as the national capital of Italy,wrested political power from the papal governments,and absorbed the so-called "Papal States" into its territory.
A 1929 Agreement hammered out by the Italian government and the Pope,established Vatican City as a country...all 0.17 square miles of it!Gradually the country has gained recognition as such,by establishing diplomatic ties with other countries,and by receiving dignitaries from other nations.
Vatican City is the official seat of the Catholic Church,and its head,the Pope,rules through a civil governor.As with any other country,this miniature country sports its own flag,coins its own coins,runs its own postal,transportation,telephone systems,and radio broadcasting station.Vatican City is all grown up.

1870年以前,政治统治政府在意大利中部势力差不多延伸达1,600平方英里.1870年,意大利王国,作为一种政治力量,罗马定为意大利的国家首都,从教皇的政治权力的政权,将所谓的政府“教皇国”列入自己的版图.
1929年锤出来的协议,意大利政府和罗马教皇梵蒂冈城建立为国家…所有0.17平方英里!逐渐得到了承认的那样,通过与其他国家建立外交关系,并接受来自其他国家.
梵蒂冈城是天主教教廷的官方所在地,其首领为教皇,通过行政长官实行统治.与其他国家一样,这样一个袖珍小国挂自己的国旗,铸造自己的硬币,经营自己的邮政、交通、电话系统和无线电广播电台.梵蒂冈城可谓是“麻雀虽小,.
