Concordats (Religious Legal Instruments)

Agreements between the Holy See and a state about the place of the Church in that country, such as the Concordat of 1801, the Lateran Treaty and the Reichskonkordat. An entry belongs here when its article presents a treaty of this kind. The group page lists texts of the same legal kind together so that a reader can compare how religious authority and state power are put into writing. Entries are placed by what their own article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group that its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
