The date of the foundation of Rome is considered to be 753 BC. From 27 BC, it became the capital of the Roman Empire. In 330 AD, the capital was moved to Constantinople, and in 395 the state was divided into two parts. Rome became the capital of the Western Empire. In 476, it was defeated by barbarian tribes, and the city fell into decline.
From 754 to 1870, Rome was the capital of the theocratic state - the Papal States. After its abolition, only the Vatican remained in the possession of the papacy.
About 2.8 million people live in the capital of Italy. The city is a major tourist center.
