Description: A history of the Papal states before the 1848 revolution and how the events of 1848 affected the states. From the 1848 Encyclopedia.
Papal States Pre-1849 For over a thousand years, the states of the church had been a unique religious enclave. The church provided the rationale for the existence of the state, to allow the pope freedom of action without owing loyalty to any secular prince. Revenue was not considered public wealth, but income intended for charity or as support for clerics engaged in ecclesiastical work. Churchmen always held the dominant governmental offices. They legislated, judged, educated, and policed the state in such a way as to ensure that the church would have a steady base from which to operate.
