Pope Francis is the most protected religious leader in the world. The Pope, who is the head of the Catholic church of about 1.6 billion people, is both the Bishop of Rome and ex-officio leader of the world.

 

He lives in Vatican City, Rome in Italy, one of the most secured cities in world. This is a city where you cant walk past the streets without noticing all the highly trained guards wearing antiquated armors like the ones we see in movies of old, who also bear equally old-fashioned spears. However, you need not be fooled because rumor has it that the armored guards feel no pain, and they are actually a high-end military force made up of top ex Swiss soldiers, who can subdue a threat in mere seconds.

 

Aside from the spears in plain sight, they have the finest collection of firearms safely tucked away in case of an eventuality.

 

The Swiss Guard, which was officially founded by Pope Julius II in 1506 is over 500 years old, making it the longest standing military in the world and till now still renowned for some of the most decisive victories in history. Who better to protect a highly revered figure as Pope Francis than an army that has remained on their feet 500 years on and still standing.

Queen Elizabeth II is the Queen of the United Kingdom and 15 other Commonwealth realms. Her rule has been a remarkable one thus far, having been on the throne for 68 years, however, that's not the purpose of this article.

 

Queen Elizabeth II is the most protected sovereign ruler in the entire world as at this moment.

 

The Queen is protected by the Royal Guard.

 

Although the foot guards that patrol the parameters of the royal residences wear some funny looking red tunics and those tall bearskin hats throughout the years, but don't get it twisted, the Royal guard is sometimes made up of Marines and Navy fleets, depending on their posting and the Queen's schedule or travel itinerary. Though there were rumors around 2010 that it costs the Queen roughly a 100 million British pounds yearly to give 21 members of the family around-the-clock security, you can expect it to be nearly as expensive if not more than.

 

The day the world caught attention of the kind of protection being enjoyed by North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong-un was when they saw his security detail running alongside his armored limousine during a visit to Singapore.

 

I mean, one can only imagine the level of paranoia that it takes for a man to go about his day in that manner. Whether its because of assassination attempts or competition from within his own circle of power, Kim Jong-un has by his side at all times, 12 highly trained martial artistes, and his own 100,000-man army with a command structure that reports directly to him. This unit, otherwise known as the Supreme Guard Command, is known for their stealth mode if operation. You would hardly be able to tell his detail is surrounding him at all times as they virtually disappear into the backgrounds. Kim Jong-un is fond of saying he is untouchable, well, who wouldn't if you had a 100,000-man army to yourself?

 

 

Donald J. Trump is the most protected businessman on the planet. He is an American real estate heir businessman and the current President of the United States with an estimated net worth of 3.1 billion dollars. The position of President of United States POTUS, obviously comes with its unrivaled security detail, which means it also comes with a steep budget. In May 2017, the U.S. Congress passed a federal budget plan that shelled out an unbelievable $120 million dollars for an entire year of security for President Trump and his family, just a few million dollars shy of what it actually cost to secure President Obama for all eight years of his two terms. Such an enormous amount like this wouldn’t have been necessary but for the fact that Trump travels between the White House and his extended estates quite frequently, and his immediate family has also chosen to live outside of the White House and its protective perimeter.

 

 

The most protected man alive

 

Vladimir Putin

 

Vladimir Putin like other political figures in Russia is protected by the Federal Protective Service, however Putin’s people seem to be an entirely different bundle all together. Little is known about the workings of Putin’s arm in the Federal Protective Service. There is no public data about its operations and there are no publicly available reports, it’s so secretive that only assumptions can be made about what they do. Vladimir himself is a controversial figure that has been the center of media attention ever since his first acting presidency, where it was noted that the man had started growing a sort of personality cult around him similar to some previous leaders. Although there aren’t any giant statues of him being put up, he has become an internet icon in his own right, which has kept him within the realm of the public, often something that doesn’t come without its prices. Of course, the populist view of this leader is extremely polarized due to the political and financial corruption of his cabinet, which has resulted in countless protests threats and assassination attempts that’s made it necessary for Putin to ramp up security in his own unique way.
