The papal nobility are the aristocracy of the Holy See, composed of persons holding titles bestowed by the Pope.

The town was declared a city shortly thereafter, due to its booming growth, and in 1880 it became the nation's capital for a few weeks, because of the dispute between the national government and Buenos Aires province for the status of the city of Buenos Aires ...
