Catholic Answer
The Holy Father doesn't lead any branch of Christianity for the simple reason that Christianity as established by Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, cannot have any "branches". Our Blessed Lord was very emphatic in establishing only one Church, which He founded on the Apostle Peter (and his successors-the Popes), read St. Matthew 16:17-19. The Christian Church is commonly called the Catholic Church. "Branches" of Christianity are actually denominations from a heresy called Protestantism formed in the sixteenth century, which have appropriated the word "Christian" to themselves, which is where the confusion comes in.

∙ 11y agoThe question is moderately ambiguous, as the meaning of "where" is not clear.
If the question asks where the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church resides and governs from, then the answer is from the Vatican City, located in Rome, Italy.
If the question is after the direction in which the leadership of the Roman Catholic Church is taking it, there is not succinct answer. From the doctrinal standpoint of the RCC, the Pope is the leader of God's Church on earth, and is empowered to lead God's flock in the proper direction of salvation.
