![[-] Quarterdillon156 935 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) Yes and no. Il Vaticano is actually a very old move, in multiple versions of different kinds of Chess. However the move was eventually scrapped due to disagreements on whether or not the move applied to pieces, or just powns. In today's Chess it's nearly non-existent, as most major chess websites prefer to pretend it doesn't exist. permalink source embed save save-RES report give award reply hide child comments [-] Turtlehunter239 points 1 month ago Was it called the Il Vaticano back then or something else? permalink source embed save save-RES parent report give award reply hide child comments [-] Quarterdillon156 147 points 1 month ago It was called Il Vaticano, yes, but some called it Il Vaticino, some called it Intervento Divino. Some bonus history is that there was a small schism in the Church when a Pope Clement VII played against King Henry VIII. Pope Clement used Il Vaticano, which King Henry declared illegal, and due to this there became a schism in the Church which led to the founding of the Church of England. (Most people believe the schism was due to Henry wanting to divorce his wife, but this is a simple misinterpretation of events.) permalink source embed save save-RES parent report give award reply hide child comments](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/002/576/833/bf7.png "Il Vaticano")
![[-] HylianPikachu 188 points 1 month ago Il Vaticano allows you to shuffle around your bishops without actually creating any overall change in the game. This rule is based on the Catholic Church policy where priests who were accused of sx scandals were simply relocated to a different area so the church could turn a blind eye to the abuses done by Catholic priests. permalink source embed save save-RES report give award reply hide child comments [-] Howardavery 59 points 1 month ago Holy see permalink source embed save save-RES parent report give award reply [-] shitstough 2 points 1 month ago Lol permalink source embed save save-RES parent report give award reply](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/002/576/831/b0e.png "Il Vaticano")
