Mosque architecture was actually adapted from churches, so it is not too strange that they look alike.  I think there are various types of churches there.  The ones you are talking about may be catholic.

Writing styles and subject matter. \nThere are both similarities and differences in either area.

Philadelphia, PA, where I live. It has lots of cool stuff, but most of all it's an idiosyncratic city. It's difficult to explain to the outsider, but it's possibly the most perfectly imperfect city.\n\nI've been living in Rome for the past 4 months and I love it here too. I've also visited Koln, Germany and that was a fantastic town full of good shopping districts, really good food, lots of beer and tourist-friendly people.

That would have to be the Medicci family. They pretty much controlled Florence back in the day. Not a one of them sat in the senate, but they still controlled the decisions and had those that they didn't like thrown out.

I think Venice, Italy is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen. The canals, the square, the church, the cobblestone streets, and its small size all contribute to its intimacy and charm. I have heard people complain that the canals have an unpleasant smell; however, that was not my experience.\n\nI also spent several months in Aix-en-Provence, France. It's like a mini-Paris, but with better weather, nicer people, and fewer cliches. South of town you can hike Mont Saint Victoire, immortalized by the local early impressionist Paul Cezanne. There you can visit his old studio and an old chateau of Renoir's, and hike among fragrant fresh rosemary and lavender. It will take your breath away! Just nearby there is a beautiful town called Cassis, which is absolutely charming and has beautiful cliffs and beaches. I miss that place very much!

Pittsburgh.  What you see is what you get.  It can look very plain and dusty, but at other times quite beautiful (like in the evenings at Christmastime).  It seems straightforward but also contains many pleasant surprises.\n\nIf I could choose one for my enemy:  Rome.  Dirty, indiscriminate, and smells.  ;~D

I would tend to agree with Vatican City as the correct answer.  While the Vatican is within the city of Rome, it is not a part of Rome, nor does it fall within the jurisdiction of any part of the Italian government.\n\nThis independant status is so well entrenched and recognized that, even during the Nazi occupation of Rome, during WWII, the Germans respected the confines of the Vatican as a separate nation, who's borders were to be respected.\n\nVatican City hires Swiss mercenary soldiers for it's internal security.  While it is a fairly large complex, I can't imagine that it employs a very large security force.
