Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the Catholic Church.

If by elaborate bureaucracy, you are referring to the Curia, it is the administration that runs a Church which spans the world and has existed for two millennium. There is nothing else like it in the world, and never has been. They try to coordinate thousands of Bishops and dioceses all over the world. The administer colleges and universities, someone in the Curia looks at every annulment request anywhere in the world, reads all the history and makes a final decision on it. One bureau does nothing but deal with religious, another deals with priests. Another deals with matters of faith and morals (many years ago it was the Holy Office). They support the Holy Father, and see to every cleric, priest or bishop who visits the Vatican. For a more detailed description of the various offices, see the link below:
