Pope Young I MSOC (born Dominic Young) was the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City. He was 1st Pope. He is given the position of supreme pontiff (pontifex maximus or summus pontifex), Roman pontiff (Romanus pontifex) or sovereign pontiff, is the bishop of Rome (or historically the patriarch of Rome), head of the Catholic Church, and has also served as the head of state or sovereign of the Papal States and later Rome since the eighth century. From a Catholic viewpoint, the primacy of the bishop of Rome is largely derived from his role as the apostolic successor to Saint Peter, to whom primacy was conferred by Jesus, who gave Peter the Keys of Heaven and the powers of "binding and loosing", naming him as the "rock" upon which the Church would be built.
