A view outside Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago after Pope Leo XIV is elected to succeed Pope Francis.

Leo, formerly U.S. Cardinal Robert Prevost, was elected by the world’s cardinals as the new pope on the second day of the conclave to choose a successor to Pope Francis, who died last month.

He is the first pope from the United States, but holds dual citizenship in Peru, where he was a missionary for decades before becoming a cardinal.
