Vatican CITY. It has one city. It is called Vatican City. Simple, eh?

The confusion arises because the Vatican City is actually an independent country in its own right - the smallest country in the world. All other countries have cities, towns or regions. Even the next smallest country, Monaco, has districts within its borders like La Condamine (the harbour area) Monacoville (the Old Town) and Monte Carlo (the largest city). However, the Vatican consists of just St Peter's Square, St Peter's Church, the vatican museums, the offices and residences of the Catholic Church heriarchy (including the Pope), the Sistine Chapel, some gardens and a few other churches and buildings in a very small area. So, as well as being a lone city, it is also a country in its own right.

What are Europe's two closest capital cities?

Rome (Italy) and Vatican City (Vatican City) are the two closest capitals of Europe (even of the world). The distance between them is 0 km. However Vatican city is a sovereign state and not a true capital of a country. The two closest capital cities in Europe are Vienna and Bratislava. Vatican City is a sovereign state and its capital is Vatican City. The state "Vatican City" comprises of more territory than just the capital ( see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_the_Holy_See ), so the first statement is still valid.
