Italian is the principal working language of the Holy See, serving as the lingua franca in the Roman Catholic hierarchy. An important event that helped to the spread of Italian was Napoleon's conquest and occupation of Italy in the early 19th century.

Italian became a language used not only among secretaries, aristocrats and the Italian courts, but also by the bourgeoisie.
