Two countries that come to mind immediately are Iran and Vatican City. Iran is a Muslim theocracy in the Middle East, which means that its supreme leader (the Ayatollah) is also considered the highest religious leader in the country. Vatican City is the home of the Catholic Church, and the entire government is church run.
