Suburbicarian diocese

title: Suburbicarian diocese
text: The seven suburbicarian dioceses are Catholic dioceses located in the vicinity of Rome, whose (titular) bishops are the ordinary members of the highest-ranking order of cardinals, the cardinal bishops. Pope Francis has, in addition, co-opted five cardinals of the Latin Church to join the ranks of the cardinal bishops. Being awarded the titular title of a suburbicarian see is considered more an honor or prestige than aimed towards a functional intent.
