Oh, Italy is such a wondrous place. The culture especially is wondrous, the geography there is quite perfect, with beaches and countryside, and mountains, and plains. It's not too massive a land mass, and their government system has been working quite well for the past few years (They've changed it so many times, though). They have one of the greatest defense forces, in addition to, last I heard, a fairly decent economy (Especially compared to some others). It's blessed to have such diverse experience, considering almost everyone has been through there at one point or another (Greeks, Romans, Germans, French, Spanish, Gypsies, ect.). And I also heard that Jesus is pretty famous there. :o
It's a great place. C:
