The death of Pope Francis has sparked speculation over the succession, with a papal conclave to elect a new leader of the Catholic Church. Cardinals under 80 will vote, and the process is marked by strict and secretive rules. Favorites such as Cardinal Pietro Parolin, a moderate figure, and Cardinal Peter Erdo, a conservative, are in the foreground. Other candidates include cardinals with varied views, from liberals to traditionalists, each with different chances in the conclave.
