The Roman Catholic hierarchy is structured with the Pope at the top, followed by cardinals, bishops, priests, and deacons. The Pope is the leader of the worldwide Catholic Church, while cardinals assist him in governing and electing a new Pope when needed. Bishops oversee specific regions called dioceses, and priests serve within those dioceses. Deacons assist priests in their duties. This hierarchical structure helps to maintain order and unity within the Church.
