Italy has one of the richest history in the world. From the teramare people, Etruscan kingdom, Roman Empire, Papal State, Renaissance and more. I don't think there is another region that has influenced the western world so much and for so long as the Italian peninsula. The history and culture is just immense.

Don't forget pizza

[@michaelsilver253]

I agree with the amazing scope of the peninsula's effect on western culture- it's very hard to keep that in mind, since the last couple hundred years Italy'a influence is pretty much gone outside of luxury brands.

it is the Germanic tribes that are the basis and history of all of Europe

[@keyos1955]

@@pyropulseIXXI Lol what? The Germanic tribes didn't count anything evem for the history of country like Germany. The only relevant Germanic tribe were the Franks and they started to be relevant knly when they got romanized in every aspect. What the Franks did was collecting the ledacy of the Romans and this brought Europe to the dark age. Then, after many years, Europe went over Renaissance, the age of discovery, the scientific revolution, etc. All those three phases started with Italy at the center of the European history. The Renaissance is an Italian thing, the age of discovery was promoted by Marco Polo experience, and Italian cartographers and started when two Italians discovered the new world. The scientific revolution was a consequence of the Humanism, birth in Italy, and was boosted by Galileo Galilei, again an Italian. Who brought the Arab numbers in Europe was again an Italian, Fibonacci. The greatest artists, scientists, explorers, cartographers, writers, where all Italians. Who do you think invented the modern music? The Italians with Opera, Piano Forte, and Violin. All the western world history is based on the history of Italy
