The selection method of the pope in Vatican City is known as a papal conclave. After the death or resignation of a pope, the College of Cardinals gathers to elect a new pope, typically in the Sistine Chapel. The election requires a two-thirds majority vote, and once a candidate is chosen, he is asked if he accepts the position and chooses a papal name. The new pope is then announced to the public from the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica.
