# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in the Roman Province of Africa, Victor rose to become Bishop of Rome around 189, one of the earliest popes whose origin lay outside Italy. His tenure came during a period when the church was still forming its identity under imperial suspicion, navigating questions of practice and belief across a scattered network of communities. He died in 199. Later generations named him a saint and martyr, his feast day fixed to 28 July.
