Knights bury their leader in Rome

BBC NEWS | Europe | Knights bury their leader in Rome

This is something I've never heard of, being raised Baha'i. The Knights sound like a benevolent force.

The grand master of the order of the Knights of Malta - a powerful Catholic body that traces its origins to the Crusades - has been buried in Rome.... The order is non-political and runs relief operations in 120 countries, supported by 80,000 volunteers.

It is well known for the work it does in many Muslim countries.
