Silvadum City (Classical: /ˈs̠ɪɫ̪u̯äd̪ʊ̃ˑ/; Ecclesiastical: /ˈsilvɑːd̪um/), officially the Silvadum City State (Medovian: Erbes Śtot de Silvadi; Latin: Status Civitatis Silvadi; Diacritic Latin: Status Cīvitātis Silvādī) is a city-state governed by the Holy See in Gavarnik, the capital of Medovia. It is a official residence of the pope and de facto central point to the Catholic Church.

History

Before Christianity

The name Silvadum comes from old Latin settlement, named "Silva Vadum" ("𐌔𐌉𐌋𐌖𐌀 𐌖𐌀𐌃𐌖𐌌" as written in at the time used Old Latin script), meaning "The Wooden Ford" in Common. Over centuries, the va in the first word merged with the second word, creating the term "Silvadum". The first record with the new name comes from the 4th century BC, noting, that in Silvadum, there was a flood.

The area of Silvadum became later part of the Gavarnik city, which administered it and operated a fort in the location.

Arrival of Christianity

Traditionally, Saint Peter arrived in Gavarnik at around 57 AD, being crucified in 68 AD (some sources provide 62 or 64 AD). At that time, the Christian church in Gavarnik is already expected to be established, despite the prosecution from the imperial power.

The next 35 popes (at that time only regular bishops just like any other bishop) of Gavarnik were porsecuted as well, being mostly martyred or living in hiding, settling the Christian doctrine and spreading Christianity across the area. In 380 AD (some sources provide 382 or 383 AD), the local administration adopted Christianity as the official religion, putting the definite end to the centralized persecution of Christians.
