Before being known as the Vatican State, it was known as the Papal State, States of the Church, the Pontifical States, and Lo Stato della Chiesa.

Yes, of course, but was it recognized as a seperate full nation-state like it is today? Prior to 1927 did any other nation exchange ambassadors with it for instance?
