Line 18:
After the fall of the empire, the praefectus urbis continued to to be elected and did not come to be totally deprived of their power even by the advancing [[Pope|papal]] power which effectively became the municipal government of Rome.
The Ager Romanus, as a political zone subject to the municipium of Rome, theoretically continued to extend ''ad centesimum lapidem'', but in practice many of its regions ended up in [[Lombards|Lombard]] hands, with still others managed by the religious authorities or the pope, who were beginning to manage their territories by means of ''[[patrimonia]]'' and ''[[domuscultae]]''.
===Today===
The ''motu proprio'' of 6 July 1817 by [[Pope Pius VII]] established the boundaries of the municipium of Rome, assigning to the capital its present communal territory as well as the present [[Comune|commune]]s of [[Fiumicino]], [[Pomezia]] and [[Ardea (RM)|Ardea]]. The confines of the Comunità di Roma were thus finally defined and no longer nebulous, and these limits ended at the constitution of the commune of Pomezia (also including present-day Ardea) following its lasting foundation during the [[Pontine marshes|"bonifica fascista"]] and - in the nineties - of Fiumicino.
