What kind of political entity is the Order of Malta and where is it?

The Order of the Hospital, commonly known as the Order of Malta, is an independent military order of St. John's Hospital in Jerusalem, also known as the Independent Military Order of St. John's Hospital in Rhode Island and the Order of Malta.

From his long and awkward names, we can also see the long history and the territory under its jurisdiction over the years. He was founded by an Italian Benedictine in the hospice hospital in Jerusalem on 1048, because John the Baptist is the patron saint (every Catholic-related group has a patron saint, for example, the patron saint of China Church is the adoptive father of Jesus). Therefore, it is called the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem and usually serves the wounded and sick. Participants must, like other monks, make three vows of "obedience, chastity and poverty" at the altar, calling for defending the holy land with iron and blood.

1 120 was changed to a religious order. Although it is a secular religious order with unique characteristics, it is still regarded by the western world as an overhaul order after Benedictine and Augustine orders. In the Middle Ages, its territory was very vast, including Rhode Island, Cyprus and malta island in its heyday. It is also one of the earliest religious orders, directly subordinate to the Pope and without the jurisdiction of local bishops. 1 189 After the fall of the Holy Land, the headquarters moved to Sai Plus and then to Rhode Island. 1789 moved to Malta and was later renamed the Sovereign Military Order of Malta.

Finally, I moved to Rome and changed my current name. Today, the headquarters of this Order is located in Condotti Street, near Spagna Square in Rome, and the head of the Order is Fraj Luo? De Mojana. Di Coronha lives in a villa in Knight Square on Avendilla Street. At present, the only remaining order country in the world has been recognized by more and more countries, and the latest statistics show that nearly 50 countries have recognized it.

In the Middle Ages, the center of knight's work was to take care of patients. Centuries before nightingale established the modern nursing system, the slogan of "patients first" hung in the hospital ward of the Order. I remember reading a book in the library, which once recorded that in the hospital of the Order, the wards were symmetrical, spacious and ventilated. The bed was covered with fine linen, the patient ate chicken in a silver plate, and the knights themselves ate goat meat in a little stinking room, using a tin-aluminum alloy plate. Although it sounds a little timid, shouldn't it be regarded as an important creed for knights to save lives and sympathize with the weak?

Today's knights still influence the world through solid activities. Their activities include building and operating hospitals and various health centers in Asia, Africa, Europe and Latin America, providing care and first-aid materials for the wounded in medical centers in Europe, and providing relief work for refugees. The supreme leader of the Order is the Commander-in-Chief, who is responsible for managing the Order with the assistance of a committee. The highest authority of the organization is the regular meeting.

As a religious order, the Order of Malta is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Religious Order and Charity of the Holy See, but as an independent entity, it maintains diplomatic relations with papal states. Today, the order has about 8,000 members, including ordinary believers and priests. The purpose of the order is to give full play to the spiritual strength of its members, serve the Catholic faith and the Holy See and engage in charitable activities.

The Order of Malta in the Middle Ages had only one rank, consisting of legal knights and professional priests, who fulfilled three vows. Generally speaking, full-time managers always come from this ranks. /kloc-in the 0/6th century, with the great development of commodity economy, a second class composed of branch knights and just donors appeared. They promised to strive for the perfection of religious belief and the dignity of chivalry in their lifetime.

Recently, a third class has emerged, consisting of secular believers and secular priests, mainly women, many of whom won medals in the Middle Ages, such as "Knights and Honorary and devout ladies", "Knights and cordial and devout ladies" and so on. A member who is promoted to the rank of knight must have conclusive evidence to prove that he is of noble origin, and a person of civilian origin can only be a soldier. Although the standard has been relaxed to some extent, birth is still the main evidence of rating so far.

As for the hospital order established by Jerome, it was later renamed the Holy Sepulchre Order, which is another ancient but very special order. Under the protection of the Holy See, he devoted himself to the cause of protecting holy places and helped to cultivate personal loyalty to the Holy See and the Pope himself, with a different focus from that of the Order of Malta.
