  Papal Tiara
Pope Paul's tiara was presented to the National Shrine of the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Washington DC by the Apostolic Delegate to the United States on February 6, 1968 as a gesture of Pope Paul VI's affection for the Catholic Church in the United States.
In 1978, one of Pope John Paul I's first decisions on his election was to dispense with the millennium-old papal coronation and the use of a papal tiara.
One of the papal tiaras remains in use, however, as is placed on the head of a statue of St.

The Papal conclave of 1958 occurred following the death of Pope Pius XII on October 9, 1958 in Castel Gandolfo, the papal summer residence in Italy, after a 19-year papacy.
Pius had initiated a series of liturgical reforms to the Mass that in some ways were the forerunner of Vatican II changes; in one version of the Mass he introduced vocal participation by the congregation that was to become a standard feature of the Mass of Paul VI.
As with many papal conclaves, the man eventually chosen to reign as pope was not one of the papabili but a mild-mannered former diplomat of working class origins, 77-year old Angelo Cardinal Roncalli, the Cardinal Patriarch of Venice and former nuncio to France.

This unusual papal coronation on March 21, 1800 occurred in a cramped monastery church, while the coffined corpse of his predecessor, dead seven months, remained unburied on the orders of pro-Napoleonic clergy, the late pontiff's coffin labelled simply "Citizen Braschi, exercising the profession of Pontiff".

The Papal Household had made all the necessary preparations, and the Cardinal-Secretary of State, the Prefect of the Papal Household, and other senior officials of his court were present at his bedside when he entered eternity.
His immediate tasks were to verify the death of the pope, to announce it to all the cardinals and summon them to Rome for the coming conclave, to notify the diplomatic missions accredited to the Holy See, and to prepare the funeral rites of the deceased pontiff.
The funeral of Paul VI was the first of its kind in the history of the Church, as much of the ceremony and pageantry attached to this rite was abolished during his pontificate.

In 1870 the Quirinal became the residence of the Italian king, as Rome was established as the capital of the new monarchy.
Although the history of papal elections is long and colorful, many of the factors that once influenced conclaves-- such as the open lobbying of European monarchs, or the gaps in communication that prevented some distant prelates from hearing about the Pope's death until after the election-- are no longer relevant considerations.

From the early tenth century to the Gregorian reforms of the eleventh century, the papal state was dominated by factions of the Roman nobility.
The college of cardinals lost power; however, this decline ended up weakening the papacy itself, turning the Papal States into a pawn of conclave politics, which in turn were subject to external pressures, as the great powers intervened to exclude candidates who were not to their liking.
Ten years later, the Papal States, bereft of foreign protection, lost the legations, the Marches, and Umbria to the new Kingdom of Italy, which proclaimed Rome to be its capital in 1861.

 Peril a possiblilty in papal conclaves
The term "conclave" comes from the Latin for "with a key," reflecting the tradition of locking cardinals into a room until the job was done.
Yet even in 1978, when two papal elections were held in rapid succession, the first vote was tinged with chaos.
The concept of the modern conclave dates to 1274, when Gregory X decided cardinals would eat, sleep and vote in the same locked chamber.

 The Coming Conclave: What to expect from the next papal election
The first conclave, in which the cardinals were locked into a room (the word "conclave" derives from the Latin words for "with a key") occurred in 1241, when Italian noblemen grew impatient with the cardinals who had been deliberating for more than two months.
Even after the conclave begins, those cardinals who are over the age of 80, and thus ineligible to participate, may be willing to tell journalists about earlier meetings with their colleagues, lending their own perspectives on the events that could be developing behind the closed doors.
A third important change since the conclaves of 1978 is the opening of the Casa St. Martha, a guesthouse inside the Vatican grounds where the cardinals will be lodged during the conclave.

In August 1978, following Paul's death, he participated in the Papal Conclave that elected Albino Luciani, the Cardinal Patriarch of Venice, as Pope John Paul I. At 65, Luciani was a young man by Papal standards.
The conclave itself was divided between two particularly strong candidates: Giuseppe Siri, the Archbishop of Genoa, and Giovanni Benelli, the Archbishop of Florence and close associate of Pope John Paul I. In early ballots Benelli came within nine votes of victory.
He was to become, arguably, the dominant twentieth-century pope of the Catholic Church, eclipsing Pope Paul VI in travels, and, to some, eclipsing Pope Pius XII in intellectual vigour, and Pope John XXIII in charisma.

Moves in the direction of what the ecumenists refer to as "Christian unity" have been fairly well chronicled in recent years but indications of the kind of unity the new Pope and his friends may be reaching toward are just emerging.
Since the result is typical of the flood of error circling the globe via the media at this point, it is worthwhile pointing to some of the mistakes.

During the several days of discussions before going into the conclave, many cardinals said the Church was in need of a pope who would more seriously consult the world’s bishops.
Indeed, there have been far fewer papal documents in these first several months, but insiders say that the new pope is doing most of the writing himself.

As cardinals gather in Vatican City to choose the successor to Pope John Paul II, the temptation to eavesdrop on their deliberations could prove too much for some.
The name of the papal successor would provide explosive news headlines and the private discussions between different factions within the papal conclave could be politically sensitive.
But this is the first papal conclave since 1978 and surveillance technology has improved in its sophistication since then, prompting experts to note that there are many ways in which the conclave could be spied upon.
