Hello, you said I could ask anything about Italy! :D So can you tell me 10 interesting facts about the country that you think many foreigners don't know?
Hi!! Thank you for your question about my country 🇮🇹
Italy, as many of you know, is a country full of many different realities which depend on where you go, as it was influenced by different countries (especially France, Spain, Papal State, Austria and Germany) and ancient cultures (Romans, Greeks, Etruscans, Celts, Phoenicians... and many more!) .
Here I’ll explain some unusual things many foreigners (or even Italians) don’t know! For more fun facts, I suggest you to check my headcanon posts out, I always write about history and culture (the first posts are mostly about the Italy fam) 📚
Tumblr media
1. The old capitals
Rome is known to be the Capital, but it hasn't always played this role during the history of Italy: the cities under the monarchy which were capitals are Turin (1861-1865), Florence (1865-1871), Rome (1871-1943), Brindisi (1943-1944) and Salerno (1944-1944).
2. Collections about Ancient Egypt
Turin and Naples own two of the most complete and important collections about Ancient Egypt after Cairo (Museo Egizio di Torino and Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli). Inside both you can find statuary groups, mummies, papyrus and everything related to ancient Egypt, including mummified animals ⚱️
3. Largest minority groups
Italy got 5 million residents who are foreigners, 22,7% of them are from Romania, 8,4% from Albania, 8,2% from Morocco, 5,7% China and 4,5% Ukraine!
4. Spoken languages
There are 15 officially recognized minority languages ​​in Italy, including native languages and the languages ​​of neighboring countries: Sardinian, Friulian, Neapolitan, Sicilian, Venetian, Catalan, Occitan, Ladin, French, Franco-Provençal, German, Slovenian, Croatian, Albanian and Greek.
5. Strange dishes
Many people from all over the world maintain Italian cuisine is delicious. Indeed, but they have probably only eaten the most famous dishes! In Italy you can eat food made with organs (see lampredotto or fegato alla veneziana) and you can also try snails, frogs, horse, boar, deer, even pigeon, but these aren't available in all the regions (for ex. in Naples you won't find boar while in Florence yea). I love boar meat 😋
6. Baroque music and instruments
The Italians invented violin, viola, cello and piano and were the greatest representatives of Baroque music with Vivaldi, Corelli, Monteverdi, Scarlatti D., Albinoni and Boccherini.
7. Italian car brands
Besides the luxury brands Ferrari, Lamborghini and Maserati which you can very rarely find in the streets, famous brands in my country are Fiat, Alfa Romeo and Lancia (also, I made an hc about which car the Itabros would have!).
8. The shortest river in the world
In the province of Verona, precisely in Malcesine, there's the shortest river in the world, the river Aril, which is only 175 m long. It's called "Ri" and, at the end of its course, flows into Lake Garda.
9. What "Italy" means
The name "Italy" derives from the word Italói, a term with which the Greeks designated the Vituli: a native population of the Calabrian tip who worshiped a religious figure embodied by a calf (vitulus, in Latin). The name would therefore mean “inhabitants of the land of calves”. Moo!! 🐂
10. Fossils in the Alps
In the Alps, scientists have discovered several different fossils, from the marine ones like molluscs (ammonites) to parts of dinosaur skeletons and footprints of large reptiles!
