The College of Cardinals is composed of senior church officials in the Roman Catholic Church, primarily bishops and archbishops, who are appointed by the Pope. Its members are divided into three ranks: cardinals of the bishops, cardinals of the priests, and cardinals of the deacons. The College plays a crucial role in advising the Pope and is responsible for electing a new pope during a conclave when the papacy becomes vacant. Additionally, cardinals often oversee various Vatican offices and serve as leaders in their respective dioceses around the world.
The dean of the College of Cardinals, elected by the cardinals, directs the papal conclave.
