Extrapolate forward.  Imagine Italy doesn't get a handle on the immigration
and demographics problem.  50 years from now, the Vatican is in a dangerous
neighborhood.  Tourists have mostly stopped coming, because of the risk
entering or leaving from fidels.  There are random acts of violence against
artifacts: ancient carvings explode, an archive mysteriously burns, a mortar
lands within the walls.

Now imagine the Vatican coming to conclude that the whole works must be
evacuated while there is still something left to evacuate.  Where would it
go?
