List of Popes
We have presented the complete List of Popes to ease fast and accurate search for information. The List of Popes contains facts about who was the first Pope, second Pope and so on. A list of popes through the ages, past popes and the last elected Pope.

The title of Pope denotes the Bishop of Rome, who, in virtue of his position as successor of St. Peter, is the chief pastor of the whole of the Roman Catholic Church. Popes are elected by the College of Cardinals meeting in Conclave when the Apostolic See falls vacant.

The Cardinals take an oath when they first enter the Conclave that they will follow the papal rules and that they will maintain absolute secrecy about the voting process. The penalty for making any disclosure is automatic  excommunication.
