The lack of articles on the Italian Wikipedia on the Roman Catholic church

I am working on a glossary with Christian terminology (mainly Roman Catholic terminology). We try to connect to encyclopaedic information in the Dutch or Italian Wikipedia. The funny thing is how little articles there are on the Roman Catholic church in the Italian Wikipedia.

Philosophing why this might be, we can only assume that the church in Italy is a given and that people do not know much about the church or, that it is so much understood to be known that it is thought not necessary to explain it. The result is that it is not possible to give encyclopaedic information to things relating to Christian religion in the Italian Wikipedia.
