@syundown6005 Main reason? Italians still haven't learned the art of organization and advertising their brands. Plus the Italian lifestyle for the most part doesn't always lend itself to having to sell, sell, sell and more, more, more money. They're more family oriented and into enjoying life more than the Germans and Japanese as that takes a toll on one's life. All you need to do is see the stress takes on the lives of Germans and Japanese, I've seen the videos, many of them are unhappy and have high rates of self-immolation. Italians don't and have been ranked as high as #1 healthiest country and usually stay in the top 10. They know how to balance business with pleasure, that's why they may not be the best in certain fields but are still able to be in the top 10 in economy, military, trading nation, wealthiest citizens in the world. Plus if you look at Italy's auto and bike brands, NO country has a more impressive line up, and as many brands and in bikes 5 of the top 10 fastest are Italian.

"Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia."

@UnholyWrath3277 Neither does Italy: Greatest history, achievements of any country in history, made western civilization, Roman Empire, saved Europe and western civilization again with the Renaissance, most powerful, richest city states in medieval times, top 10 military/economy today. You American? America, discovered by Columbus, named after Amerigo Vespucci, John Cabot (Giovanni Caboto) brought English exploration, settlement of America. Without Italy America wouldn't exist..lol at that DUDE.

@UnholyWrath3277 Have some meatballs:
"No other country in Europe can claim the continuity of civilization achieved in Italy"... Harry Hearder - Italy a Short History.
WIKI: Italy is considered the birthplace of Western civilization and a cultural superpower. Italy has been the starting point of phenomena of international impact such as the Magna Graecia, the Roman Empire, the Roman Catholic Church, the Renaissance, the Risorgimento and the European integration. During its history, the nation gave birth to an enormous number of notable people. Both the internal and external faces of Western culture were born on the Italian peninsula, whether one looks at the history of the Christian faith, civil institutions (such as the Senate), philosophy, law, art, science, or social customs and culture.😅😜

@rangles1050 Italy's tourism as part of GDP is on par with France, Germany, 10% vs 7.5% and 8.8% respectively, it's not a "main" source. Italy is a top 10 in economy, military, trading, millionaires, wealthiest citizens in the world, #2 EU industrial power and has many other sources of GDP.
You didn't answer my question, WHY WOULD THEY RETURN or new tourist CONTINUE COMING if what you claim is true?
As for advertising, it spends no more than any major tourist destination, and even less than most. Are the 4 above them in tourist, Spain, France, US, China, racist?

@giovannisignorini2597 Dying, HOW?
Italy is a top 10 in the WORLD in economy, military, trade, millionaires, wealthiest citizens, #2 EU Industrial power, G7 member/founder, dozens of world renown brands that all north Europeans envy, #3 in gold reserves, #3 NET contributor to EU. Before EU, Italy was as high as #4 economy in the world.

@UnholyWrath3277 The greatest civilization is the WEST, and who made, influenced it...Italy...China was great, but mostly influenced the East and had many centuries of decay, Italy has the best history continuity...Those city states were controlled by Italians, check the names of the famous explorers, traders who made them great, ITALIAN, not French/Austrian. German tribes were DEFEATED initially, only later at the end of the Empire were they successful, and when did that "crush" ever happen in modern times?

@UnholyWrath3277 Italy has an advanced economy. The country is the ninth-largest by nominal GDP (third in the European Union), the eighth-largest by national wealth and the third-largest by central bank gold reserve. It ranks highly in life expectancy, quality of life,[37] healthcare,[38] and education. The country is a great power, and it has a significant role in regional[39][40] and global[41][42] economic, military, cultural, and diplomatic affairs. Italy is a founding and leading member of the European Union and a member of numerous international institutions, including the United Nations, NATO, the OECD, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, the World Trade Organization, the Group of Seven, the G20, the Union for the Mediterranean, the Latin Union, the Council of Europe, Uniting for Consensus, the Schengen Area, and many more. The source of many inventions and discoveries, the country has long been a global centre of art, music, literature, philosophy, science and technology, and fashion and has greatly influenced and contributed to diverse fields including cinema, cuisine, sports, jurisprudence, banking, and business.[43] As a reflection of its cultural wealth, Italy has the world's largest number of World Heritage Sites (58), and is the fifth-most visited country.😆😄🤣

@kloschuessel773 Why was Germany in Greece?
Here's why:
From Hitler’s own words:
“Others among the German leadership were less critical, most notably Adolf Hitler. In his address to the Reichstag following the conclusion of the Balkan Campaign, Hitler was complimentary to the Greeks for their "extremely brave resistance", but stated that given the Greek logistical situation, German involvement was not decisive in the Greco-Italian conflict: "The Duce... was convinced that a quick decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming season. I was of the same opinion." He stated that he had no quarrel with Greece (which he had acknowledged as part of the Italian sphere anyway) and that his intervention was aimed solely at the British as he suspected that they planned to set up a threat to his rear in the vein of the Salonika Front
of the First World War: "the German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against Greece, but a preventive measure against the British." He further noted that by the beginning of April the Albanian campaign against the Italians "had so weakened [Greece] that its collapse had already become inevitable", and credited the Italians with having "engaged the greater part of the Greek Army."
[251]
In his private correspondence in April 1942, Hitler said: "It is equally impossible to imagine what might have happened if the Italian front had not been stabilized in Albania, thanks to Mussolini; the whole of the Balkans would have been set alight at a moment when our advance towards the southeast was still in its early stages."
In N. Africa the Italians had successfully WON , BEFORE Germany arrived .

The nonsense of the Italian Navy being completely inept:
“This revisionist history convincingly argues that the Regia Marina Italiana (the Royal Italian Navy) has been neglected and maligned in assessments of its contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.”

@UnholyWrath3277 First it was the Austrian-HUNGARIAN Empire, so they had Hungary as an ally.
Second, they had Germany..."Austria depended entirely on Germany for support – she had no other reliable ally,"
Third, speaking of non performance..."When he was finally ready, Conrad on August 12 sent his army south into Serbia, where it was decisively defeated with the loss of 100,000 soldiers." SERBIA!🤣
Fourth "On 22 August he launched an even larger campaign to the east against Russia through Galicia, leading to catastrophic defeats in the loss of 500,000 Austro-Hungarian soldiers. He blamed his railroad experts.[35] [36]"🤣😂
Fifth-"Austria was not ready for a large-scale war, and never planned on joining one at its onset. Its war plans assumed a swift limited invasion of Serbia and perhaps also a “defensive” war against Russia—which it had little chance to defeat unless Germany joined in, which Berlin had promised to do"
Austria fought almost exclusively 1-1 vs Italy and with the help of the higher ground and German, Hungarian help. Austria-Hungary was an established Empire, Italy a newly unified nation of just 45 years, yet Italy won. Live with itBRO😅🤣😝

Italy has a private wealth that is up to 11 trillions dollars, so even if she "goes bankrupt" for her debt (which is 166% of the GDP although most in Italian hands, Japan has 270% debt and America also over 130% and ALL THESE COUNTRIES ARE TOO BIG TO FAIL, Italians have the money TO BUY ALL THE DEBT!
The regions (and autonomous provinces) of northern Italy have the following GDP per capita (2019): Alto Adige/Südtirol 48.1k, Lombardy 39.7k, Trentino 38.8k, Aosta Valley 38.8k, Emilia-Romagna 36.7k, Veneto 33.7k, Liguria 32.3k, Friuli-Venezia Giulia 31.9k, Piedmont 31.7k.
Comparable with the GDP per capita (2019) of Germany: Saxony 31.4k, Schleswig-Holstein 33.7k, Rhineland-Palatinate 35.4k, Saarland 36.6k, Lower Saxony 38.4k, North Rhine-Westphalia 39.6k, Berlin 41.9k, Hesse 46.9k.
Better than Saxony (31k), Thuringia (29k), Brandenburg (29k), Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (29k), Saxony-Anhalt (28.8k). Less than Baden-Württemberg (47.3k), Bavaria (48.3k), Bremen (49.2k), Hamburg (66.8k).
Italy’s poorest region in the south Calabria has an average salary about equal to Spain’s richest, Madrid.
According to the German institute Stiftung Markwirtschaft, in 2018, the aggregate explicit debt + implicit debt of Italy is 122%, lower than the German one at 170%.

@kloschuessel773 WW I, 300,000 Austrians surrendered to Italy marking the end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. WW II...Italy conquered 5 countries, was awarded the territory they won in France, and won the Spanish civil war vs. the Communist.
Medieval times, richest most powerful European states, Renaissance that brought all Europe out of darkness. Roman Empire, richest, most powerful, influential in history made all Europe, western civilization.
How many WW's did Germany win? How influential to civilization...ZERO up until the 1800's.

@ilyarepin7750 Uh, that's the past, look at Maserati's latest sales figures and profits, steadily up every year. And instead of believing all the clickbait titles go to multiple videos and see what owners say about their OWN experiences. and about the newer models. And if they're so "incompetent" Ferrari is the most powerful car brand in the world, most racing titles by far says what? And why would sales continue for all their brands if they "fall apart after 30K miles????" And why is Italy a top 10 economy, trading nation, wealthiest citizens in the world #2 industrial power in the EU,? Because people enjoy spending money on junk over and over for decades?? What experiences have you had with Italian products, some used vehicle not properly maintained then blaming the manufacturer? I imported Italian furniture and home accessories for decades and the customers returned over and over because of the exclusive quality, style, I could count on one hand the number of complaints and there was never anything major. Take a look at the comments on German car brand videos, the complaints are endless, only Porsche was reliable and lately has sunk in the ratings, BMW only lately becoming better. My "perfect" Accord bought new, always dealer maintained had engine problems at 80K and blew up on the interstate at 120K, constant costly repairs out of warranty. British, American, Korean brands have a terrible reputation. And who is exploiting, is Maserati forcing/mandating anyone to buy and people don't know what's in this video before buying? Try again, son.

@mrnygren2 While Hitler dithered in the Fall of 1940, the Italians were busy expelling the British out of Somaliland and invaded Egypt. The failure of nerve displayed by the Germans in dealing with Britain added to Italy’s woes. Rather than invade Britain and knock it out of the war quickly, the foolhardy Germans decided to invade the USSR instead! The inanity of the Germans was, for the Italians, beyond belief! As Sadkovich caustically observed: “In the end, the Italians wasted three months waiting for Operation Sealion, whose cancellation allowed Britain to rebound, gave France hope, and caused other states either to gravitate to the British orbit or, like Spain, to remain neutral.” By September 1940, even the German public were demoralized by the war and by British raids on their cities.

@virgilstarkwell8383 "Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia."

“A popular impression in the United States of the Regia Marina, the Italian Navy, during World War II is that because its powerful surface fleet spent so much time in port, it was more effective as a fleet in being – in other words, for what it could do – than for what it actually did. As with all generalities, there are exceptions, and in this case that exception was its Decima Flottiglia MAS (10th Light Flotilla), one of the most effective units in the history of special operations.”
None of the major participants of World War II have suffered as much unjust and unfounded criticism as the military forces of the Kingdom of Italy. It really is just amazing how this false narrative has taken hold and grown ever stronger and more prevalent over time.
The nonsense of the Italian Navy being completely inept:
“This revisionist history convincingly argues that the Regia Marina Italiana (the Royal Italian Navy) has been neglected and maligned in assessments of its contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.”

Romanian patriot In Italy, most of the Romanian criminals are involved in theft and p🤣im😝ping, however, in Turin, they created an Italian-style mafia within their local community, extorting money from Romanian night-clubs that ran prostitutes, and would impose their own businesses and singers on weddings by force.[2]
Also in Turin, Romanian criminals created the 'Brigada Oarza' group, specialized in extortion, robbery and drug trafficking. In 2014, 15 members of the Brigada Oarza were convicted of mafia affiliation, being sentenced up to 15 years in prison. It was the first Italian sentence that condemned a group of Romanian people for mafia-style criminal association.[3] The leader of the Brigada Oarza was allegedly the former professional boxer Viorel Iovu.[4]

Romanian patriot From what I can read of the comments, they say Romania has one of the highest poverty rates, not the highest. No matter how you spin it, even the worst of Italy beats the average in Romania, Eastern Europe. HDI, income, tourism, crime.
Yes, poverty is on the rise in EVERY country, I can use that headline for every one, but Romania/Eastern Europe has the highest in Europe that's the difference so your headline means nada.

From Hitler’s own words:
“Others among the German leadership were less critical, most notably Adolf Hitler. In his address to the Reichstag following the conclusion of the Balkan Campaign, Hitler was complimentary to the Greeks for their "extremely brave resistance", but stated that given the Greek logistical situation, German involvement was not decisive in the Greco-Italian conflict: "The Duce... was convinced that a quick decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming season. I was of the same opinion." He stated that he had no quarrel with Greece (which he had acknowledged as part of the Italian sphere anyway) and that his intervention was aimed solely at the British as he suspected that they planned to set up a threat to his rear in the vein of the Salonika Front
of the First World War: "the German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against Greece, but a preventive measure against the British." He further noted that by the beginning of April the Albanian campaign against the Italians "had so weakened [Greece] that its collapse had already become inevitable", and credited the Italians with having "engaged the greater part of the Greek Army."
[251]
In his private correspondence in April 1942, Hitler said: "It is equally impossible to imagine what might have happened if the Italian front had not been stabilized in Albania, thanks to Mussolini; the whole of the Balkans would have been set alight at a moment when our advance towards the southeast was still in its early stages."

5 of the top 10 fastest bikes in the world.
Italy produces 40% of the world's super yachts.
Italy by far #1 in fashion brands...Gucci, Armani, Dolce&Gabbana, Prada, Versace, Fendi, Valentino, and at least 3 dozen more.
(helicopters (Agusta), energy (Enel), shipyards (Fincantieri), just to name a few) Space technology, Appliances, etc etc.

This is NEVER mentioned and is the key to Italy's under performance:
Won the Spanish Civil War which greatly hampered the Greek campaign and the remainder of Italy’s war effort of an already unprepared Italy back-stabbed by Germany when they broke the Pact of Steel just 4 months after signing in Sept. ‘39, stipulating Italy would receive 3 more years to rearm, invaded Poland and brought an unprepared Italy in WW II.
"The Consequences of Italian Intervention in the Spanish Civil War"
Italian participation in the Spanish conflict from July 1936 and March 1939 had three major consequences:
First. Italian aid to the Nationalists played a major role in their victory — possibly the decisive role. Furthermore, the high level of Italian assistance to the Nationalists was crucial in bringing the downfall of the Second Republic prior to the outbreak of the Second World War. This prevented any rescue of the Republic by the French, as might have occurred lad it survived until September 1939.
Second. The diplomatic and political consequences of Italian involvement in the war gravely hindered any post-Ethiopian War reconstruction of the anti-German Stresa Front. In particular, Italian and French aid to opposite sides in the Civil War made a rapprochement between Rome and Paris virtually impossible. Instead, the de facto Mussolini-Hitler alliance in support of the Nationalists led directly to the formation of the Rome-Berlin Axis in October 1936 and contributed significantly to the May 1939 Italian-German military alliance known as the Pact of Steel. In turn, the Pact of Steel gave Hitler the confidence to attack Poland in September 1939, initiating the outbreak of World War II.
Third. The Italian Army and Air Force were significantly drained by their heavy material support to the Nationalist and the involvement of significant Italian ground and air units in the Civil War. To a lesser degree, the Italian Navy also suffered from its participation in the conflict. The resultant military weaknesses were a major factor in persuading Mussolini to proclaim Italian “non-belligerence” in September 1939. More significantly, after the defeat of France persuaded Mussolini to intervene in the European conflict in June 1940, the continuing debilities of the Italian forces due to their participation in the Spanish war contributed to the disasters suffered by Italian arms in 1940-41.

@UnholyWrath3277 Here's more pasta to enjoy:
'Britain’s Roman Legacy' from Britain Magazine
They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.
These heirs to the Roman ideal – Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians – all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords.

@dillonblair6491 Ethiopian "war" '87-89 was an undeclared war that ended in friendship that later turned into the first war...DUDE, Italy did not lose.
I keep saying it because obviously a newly formed country is never as powerful as centuries old countries considered world powers. Russia was not a newly formed country by the time 1943 rolled around and was/is the largest country in land mass, 60 TIMES the size of Italy, and twice the population.
And it was the Germans who backstabbed Italy breaking the Pact of Steel just 4 months after signing supposedly giving Italy 3 more years to prepare since their military was severely depleted and outdated. The Germans had been building up their military for 2 decades and fought NO wars after WW I. Italy had fought for 25 years in N. Africa, plus winning the Spanish civil war and supplying them with a large amount of munitions and weapons. Italy had conquered Albania, Eritrea, Libya, Ethiopia, Somalia BEFORE WW II even started. They had thrown out or stalemated the British in N. Africa. The British later did the same to Italy AFTER mass American aid and Italy was in a deep depleted state at the time also fighting in Greece.
I stated Italy had a larger Empire than Germany, and Germany did better LATER because they were starting WW II in full power, while Italy was completely exhausted and in the conditions stated above.
Actually Italy WON every war whether in N. or East Africa, Albania, Greece, Spain, DUDE. Again tell me what ANY OTHER European country besides Germany, Russia, WON...it was ZERO
And after surrendering in '43, the Fascist continued fighting with Germany until the END as did the anti-Fascist with the Allies, DUDE.

After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.”

@dillonblair6491 Germans running to surrender while Italians continued fighting
"Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia." (The Second World War: The German War 1939-1942, Jeremy Black, Page 265, Ashgate, 2007)”

@pulse4503 Just ask any Irish, watch other videos of the situation there, housing situation and poverty are dire. Ireland has a low % of rich, the rest middle class to poor. Ireland is a tax haven for major corporations that's the major part of it's economy, has little else.
Italy is a top 10 economy, military, trading nation, wealthiest citizens, # of millionaires in the WORLD, #2 industrial power in the EU with dozens of world renown brands from autos to aerospace, can you name one Irish? In terms of private wealth, Italy ranks #2 after Hong Kong in private wealth to GDP ratio
Italy does not belong in the same sentence with the other 3 southern.
Those other 3 are not poor, but the GDP per capita does not show the true picture because of their low populations.

This from a guy who wrote an article that had nothing but bad things to say about it:
"But compared to the South Bronx, Chicago’s South Side, the projects of New Orleans? Please. According to the Rome police department and ANSA, the Italian news agency, in 2014, Rome, a city of 2.6 million people, had 27 murders. Chicago, which has 2.7 million people, had 407, according to the FBI. St. Louis (pop. 318,000) had 158. Italy, with 60 million people, had all of 468 murders in 2014. That’s one in every 130,000 people, an all-time low. The U.S. (pop. 319 million) in 2013 had 12,253 homicides (11,208 from guns) or one in every 26,000, according to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime."

@abstract5249 Italy is NOT poorer than Japan, only not as high in total GDP. In GDP capita per person Italy is actually higher, Italy is a top 10 in economy, military, trading, millionaires, wealthiest citizens in the world, #2 EU industrial power, member/founder G7 and other organizations. Crime wise not much higher, homicide rate 2nd lowest in Europe, one of lowest in the world. Italy does not remotely belong among those others you listed.

America discovered by Italian, Columbus, named after an Italian, Amerigo Vespucci, . brought English exploration of the Americas, John Cabot (Giovanni Caboto) America
"No other country in Europe can claim the continuity of civilization achieved in Italy"... Harry Hearder - Italy a Short History.
WIKI: Italy is considered the birthplace of Western civilization and a cultural superpower. Italy has been the starting point of phenomena of international impact such as the Magna Graecia, the Roman Empire, the Roman Catholic Church, the Renaissance, the Risorgimento and the European integration. During its history, the nation gave birth to an enormous number of notable people. Both the internal and external faces of Western culture were born on the Italian peninsula, whether one looks at the history of the Christian faith, civil institutions (such as the Senate), philosophy, law, art, science, or social customs and culture. Italy was home to many well known and influential civilizations, including the Etruscans, Samnites and the Romans

yEAH, let's compare BUD....Italy:
The richest in Europe in savings and one of the highest in home ownership,
have 4X less debt per household than the Dutch,
8th in the world in household net worth, 4th in Europe,
7th in the world in National Wealth,
3rd in total NET contributions to the EU among many others.
Italy: #10 ...in Ultra High Net Worth Individuals
Above USD $50M.. #7...just below India that has 25X the pop.
Number of Millionaires by country: #7...
In REAL wage growth, not skewered by exchange rates...between 2017 & 2018 in increased millionaires... #1
Gold reserves... #3
(from official eu statistics):industrial production by country Germany recorded the highest value of sold production, equivalent to 29 % of the EU total, followed by Italy (18 %), France (12 %), Spain (9 %), Poland (5 %) and the Netherlands (3%). The other 21 EU Member States contributed with smaller shares (up to 3 %).14 lug 2021
You say Italy depends on German money? NET CONTRIBUTOR to the EU budget since DECADES and each years gives 14 bn euro to the EU budget, receiving far less. This money go to Poland, Hungary, Spain and rd NET other poor countries in EU.
Italy has a private wealth that is up to 11 trillions dollars, so even if she "goes bankrupt" for her debt (which is 166% of the GDP although most in Italian hands, Japan has 270% debt and America also over 130% and ALL THESE COUNTRIES ARE TOO BIG TO FAIL, Italians have the money TO BUY ALL THE DEBT!
The regions (and autonomous provinces) of northern Italy have the following GDP per capita (2019): Alto Adige/Südtirol 48.1k, Lombardy 39.7k, Trentino 38.8k, Aosta Valley 38.8k, Emilia-Romagna 36.7k, Veneto 33.7k, Liguria 32.3k, Friuli-Venezia Giulia 31.9k, Piedmont 31.7k.
Comparable with the GDP per capita (2019) of: Saxony 31.4k, Schleswig-Holstein 33.7k, Rhineland-Palatinate 35.4k, Saarland 36.6k, Lower Saxony 38.4k, North Rhine-Westphalia 39.6k, Berlin 41.9k, Hesse 46.9k.
Better than Saxony (31k), Thuringia (29k), Brandenburg (29k), Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (29k), Saxony-Anhalt (28.8k). Worse than Baden-Württemberg (47.3k), Bavaria (48.3k), Bremen (49.2k), Hamburg (66.8k).
According to the German institute Stiftung Markwirtschaft, in 2018, the aggregate explicit debt + implicit debt of Italy is 122%, lower than the German one at 170%.

From Hitler’s own words:
“Others among the German leadership were less critical, most notably Adolf Hitler. In his address to the Reichstag following the conclusion of the Balkan Campaign, Hitler was complimentary to the Greeks for their "extremely brave resistance", but stated that given the Greek logistical situation, German involvement was not decisive in the Greco-Italian conflict: "The Duce... was convinced that a quick decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming season. I was of the same opinion." He stated that he had no quarrel with Greece (which he had acknowledged as part of the Italian sphere anyway) and that his intervention was aimed solely at the British as he suspected that they planned to set up a threat to his rear in the vein of the Salonika Front
of the First World War: "the German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against Greece, but a preventive measure against the British." He further noted that by the beginning of April the Albanian campaign against the Italians "had so weakened [Greece] that its collapse had already become inevitable", and credited the Italians with having "engaged the greater part of the Greek Army."
[251]
In his private correspondence in April 1942, Hitler said: "It is equally impossible to imagine what might have happened if the Italian front had not been stabilized in Albania, thanks to Mussolini; the whole of the Balkans would have been set alight at a moment when our advance towards the southeast was still in its early stages."

Keep waiting just like the Austrians. When are Slovenia, Austria, Britain, south Germany, eastern Europe, France, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Albania and more, returning their territories to Italy gained in the Roman Empire? "Never beat the Austrians" as in 300,000 surrendering to Italian forces and facilitating the collapse of the A-H Empire?? And Slovenia, Croatia and the surrounding territories were under (as you admit Venetian) and Rome for centuries. The ruins, architecture, languages were originally Roman/Italian, my BUDDY.

@claudiaxander Early, crude ideas of perspective were known to ancient Greeks, such as Polygnotus of Thasos, as well as ancient Roman artists in their frescos, but were lost during the Middle Ages. Additionally, Arab scientist Alhazen (b. c965 - d. 1040), in his Book of Optics, described his theory about the optical basis of perspective. His book was translated into Latin during the 14th century. Early in his architectural career (c. 1410-1415), Brunelleschi "rediscovered" the principles of linear perspective. With the foundation of these principles, one can paint or draw using a single vanishing point, toward which all lines on the same plane appear to converge, and objects appear smaller as they recede into the distance.
So? Since the Arabs conquered most of Spain, and pockets only of Sicily, Sardinia, and Northeast Italy, they could have picked up those ideas from there. Greeks, Romans knew of these ideas BEFORE that dome in Iran was built. Romans built in most of Europe, Middle East, North Africa and those ruins still exist. So who was most likely to have copied? And your text admits it's only speculation as to the Iranian influencing the Florentine.

@christian7147 So go create it, let's see you do better. How you gonna do it, sitting on your behind, smoking weed singing koombayah?
Loudmouths sitting back complaining while the rich support them is laughable.
" Well, most of the big firms hardly pay any taxes at all."
Who pays them, YOU? The poor? Who supplies the jobs, innovations that make our lives better...the poor...YOU? Who donates hundreds of billions per YEAR for the poor, people like YOU benefit indirectly from? YOU, the poor?
What are you waiting for, Michael Stivik...get off of your comfy sofa, move to a 3rd world country and GO CREATE ONE BETTER...You would return within 6 months begging for a capitalist society once more to take you back. All you have is yakkkkkkkkkk.....

@karenparle4955 The modern world was created thanks to Roman Empire, Renaissance. Who discovered the Americas? Who was the Americas named after? Who brought the English exploration of America? Columbus, Amerigo Vespucci, Giovanni Caboto (John Cabot) Who invented Universities, Banks, Capitalism? Who influenced the Brits more than anyone? The Romans first, then the many Brits that went to Italy during the Renaissance to study and bring that knowledge to Britain. How many Brit writers were inspired by Italy?
The Brits conquered China? Ummm, no and China was 95% peasants in those times, Russia was a fledgling new power, and who do you think, designed, built most of Moscow, ST. Petersburg? Who do you think taught the Russians how to build with bricks, designed their cannons that saved Russia from invaders?
Brits were also defeated by French, Spain and did not take their territories. What nationality was Napoleon, France's greatest conqueror? Who did Spain rely on for it's discoveries and funded Columbus' explorations?
THESE and MUCH MORE are the historical FACTS, matey.

@Rowlph8888 Explain these matey...yeah I quote "biased" sources eh?:::
Britain’s Roman Legacy
They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.
These heirs to the Roman ideal – Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians – all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords.

@Rowlph8888 "Students and scholars came from all over Europe to study at institutions of higher learning in Italy. The Medical School at Salerno, founded in the ninth century, was the world's first medical school, and unrivaled in the Middle Ages. The University of Bologna, the first modern university, was founded in Bologna in 1088. The University of Padua, the second oldest university in Italy, was founded in 1222 as a school of law. The University of Naples, founded in 1224, was the world's first state-supported university. During the Middle Ages, the vitality of Italian merchants was evident throughout Europe, and the resultant trade prompted their invention of financial and business practices which provided the foundation for modern banking, commerce and capitalism.[5] The original banks were "merchant banks" that Italian grain merchants first invented in the Middle Ages. Merchants and bankers grew in stature based on the strength of the Lombard plains cereal crops, and capitalism evolved based on these banks. Indeed, banking (from the Italian word for "bench") can be traced to medieval and early Renaissance Italy, to the rich cities in the north such as Florence, Venice and Genoa. Perhaps the most famous Italian bank was the Medici bank, established by Giovanni Medici in 1397.[7] The development of banking spread from northern Italy through Europe during the early Renaissance and helped create modern capitalism. Luca Pacioli is referred to as the "Father of Accounting" The Bank of Saint George (Casa delle compere e dei banchi di San Giorgio) was a bank of the Republic of Genoa, which was the main financer of the voyages of Columbus to the New World by Spain, founded in the 14th century.[8] It is the oldest chartered bank in Europe and the world"

@Rowlph8888 Won every battle in a hundred years war? Sure DUDE only in your dreams and this is before France was led by their most famous and successful general of ITALIAN origin...Napoleon...and as usual, Britain NEVER won a war vs a modern opponent without ALLIES....
"Each side drew many allies into the conflict, with English forces initially prevailing; however, the French forces under House of Valois ultimately retained control over the Kingdom of France. The French and English monarchies, previously intertwined, thereafter remained separate."
So, in the END, Britain LOST...
Q: Why does every piece of British military equipment come supplied with a phone?
A: So they can call America and their Allies to come save them.
"Over 87,000 Indian troops, and 3 million civilians died in World War II.[2][3] Field Marshal Sir Claude Auchinleck, former Commander-in-Chief, India, stated that Britain "couldn't have come through both wars [World War I and II] if they hadn't had the Indian Army."[4][5]"

@killgora1 The Italian people's musical sense, its liking for harmonious proportions, the beauty of its race! The Renaissance was the dawn of a new era, in which Aryan man found himself anew. There's also our own past on Italian soil. A man who is in- different to history is a man without hearing, without sight. Such a man can live, of course — but what a life?
The magic of Florence and Rome, of Ravenna, Siena, Perugia! Tuscany and Umbria, how lovely they are! The smallest palazzo in Florence or Rome is worth more than all Windsor Castle. If the English destroy anything in Florence or Rome, it will be a crime. In Moscow, it wouldn't do any great harm; nor in Berlin, unfortunately.
I've seen Rome and Pariš, and I must say that Pariš, with the exception of the Are de Triomphe, has nothing on the scale of the Coliseum, or the Castle of San Angelo, or St. Peter's. These monuments, which are the produet of a collective effort, have ceased to be on the scale of the individual. There's something queer about the Pariš buildings, whether it's those bull's-eye windows, so badly proportioned, or those gables that obliterate whole facades. If I compare the Pantheon in Rome with the Pantheon in Pariš, what a poor building — and what sculptures ! What I saw in Pariš has disappeared from my memory : Rome really seized hold of me. When the Duce čame to Berlin, we gave him a magnificent reception. But our journey in Italy, that was something else! The reception when we arrived, with ali the ceremonial. The visit to the Quirinal. Naples, apart from the castle, might be anywhere in South America. But there's always the courtyard ofthe royal palače. What nobility of proportions !
My dearest wish would be to be able to wander about in Italy as an unknown painter.

@robertmccarthy1256 "Trash everywhere"
As in WHERE? Italy has a population of 60 million in a small country, PLUS 65 Million tourist and.... Millions of centuries old buildings and works of art to contend with, the #1 in the world. I have watched endless videos of all Italy and only a handful of cities have that problem and it's nothing major.
As for poverty...Italy is in top 10 in economy, military, trading nation, millionaires, wealthiest citizens in the world, #2 industrial power in the EU, G7 member/founder.
Italy's poorest area Calabria has an average salary only 25% below Madrid, Spain's richest and Italy is the #3 NET EU CONTRIBUTOR, Spain is one of the largest NET EU BENEFICIARY.

@lecapetien3223 Bugatti emigrated to what was Germany at the time, France annexed it just around that time, just as Corsica where Napoleon was born, neither were France...talk about fake countries! And Bugatti was already in his 20's and had started the idea of Bugatti autos while in Italy, he came there to teach the peasants what a real car is.
Roman Empire had the most famous generals, emperors in history who all those after copied and emulated. Everything French was copied off Italy whether from the Roman Empire to the Renaissance. Even opera, ballet invented in Italy.
America discovered by Italian, Columbus, named after Italian, Amerigo Vespucci, brought the English exploration of America, Giovanni Caboto (John Cabot)
England, Portugal, ALL Europe created by Italy
Italians built designed most of St. Petersburg, Moscow and introduced cannons and other weapons to the Russians which saved them from invasions and built their militaries.
Venice, Genoa, Florence, Milan were the most powerful/richest states of their times and brought world trade/products never before seen in Europe and Asia.
Polo wrote in Franco-Venetian...nice try!

Complete/BS...marijuana is NOT harmless, there are many who can't handle the drug and will ruin their health and lives. It's also a stepping stone to harder drugs 95% of the time. I've seen many an interview with murderers, serial killers where they stated they were regular marijuana users. And the IDIOTIC argument that well alcohol is legal and "worse" so why should marijuana be illegal, yeah we have one dangerous addictive drug legal so let's make another one legal also and have twice the addicts, crime, health and social problems.
Just look at America, crime, mental health problems, addiction, homelessness are through the roof, America looks like a 3rd world.

Italians....
The richest in Europe in savings and one of the highest in home ownership,
have 4X less debt per household than the Dutch,
8th in the world in household net worth, 4th in Europe,
7th in the world in National Wealth,
4th in total contributions to the EU among many others.
If it is so hopelessly noncompetitive how come (from official eu statistics):industrial production by country Germany recorded the highest value of sold production, equivalent to 29 % of the EU total, followed by Italy (18 %), France (12 %), Spain (9 %), Poland (5 %) and the Netherlands (3%). The other 21 EU Member States contributed with smaller shares (up to 3 %).14 lug 2021

@GhostSal Ask Europeans what Italians are. There they don't play these race games that's an American thing. Look at the Italian girl in this video, does she look white? No? Jessie picked her out because she does. The census in America does too. You also failed to explain how using Sam covers up your Italian'ess...but of course you can't because everything you've said is false, or exaggerated.
Spain has the largest majority of Arab/Moor/Jewish DNA but still considered white.
"White Latin Americans, or European Latin Americans, are Latin Americans who are considered white, typically due to European descent."
White is a racialized classification of people and a skin color specifier, generally used for people of European origin; although the definition can vary depending on context, nationality, and point of view. In the US, this term has at times been expanded to encompass persons of Mexican,[1] South Asian,[2][3] West Asian, and North African descent,
Now I want you to show me where it says Italians are not white other than the America of yesteryear.

@GhostSal Oh we're all of one race...let's now sing kumbayah, my goomba!
Sub Saharan Africans have more in common with Europeans
Oh that's rich, tell me how oh wise one!
Uh huh, Africans and Europeans are the same race, just look at all the similarities, impossible to distinguish between them, so are Asians, we all 1 race!
and copying and pasting articles and references you agree with doesn’t change that.
Proceeds to c/p articles that prove my point.
found Spain and Italy to be genetically related and different than most of the rest of Europe (like the Germanic/Anglo tribes).
No kidding? That's what we said, some genetic differences but NOT Racial differences. Show me an article, proof that Europeans are all of a different race.
Just give it up, you lost this argument long ago.

The HDI is virtually equal between the 3 countries yet Spaniards push that same NONSENSE theirs is higher because of a iota difference. It's higher because of EU money, without it they would not survive. Italy and France have dozens of world famous name companies while anyone would be hard pressed to name 1 Spanish. sPAIN'S ECONOMY IS CONSTRUCTION SINCE IT WAS 50 YEARS BEHIND THE REST OF WEST eUROPE, TOURISM AND CHEAP LABOR, LITTLE ELSE. Public health system alternates between #1, 2 and 3, Italy, France, Spain, nearly equal. Compare Space Agencies, technologies of Italy, France to Spain's, there is no comparison. Spain's world standing, importance is no where comparable and Italy, France were both part of the original founders of all the major organizations, not Spain. @Gloriaimperial1

@prettypuff1 Britain’s Roman Legacy
They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.
These heirs to the Roman ideal – Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians – all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords.

@prettypuff1 "No other country in Europe can claim the continuity of civilization achieved in Italy"... Harry Hearder - Italy a Short History.
Wiki:”Italy is considered the birthplace of Western civilization and a cultural superpower. Italy has been the starting point of phenomena of international impact such as the Magna Graecia, the Roman Empire, the Roman Catholic Church, the Renaissance, the Risorgimento and the European integration. During its history, the nation gave birth to an enormous number of notable people. Both the internal and external faces of Western culture were born on the Italian peninsula, whether one looks at the history of the Christian faith, civil institutions (such as the Senate), philosophy, law, art, science, or social customs and culture. Italy was home to many well known and influential civilizations, including the Etruscans, Samnites and the Romans,”

@mattbowdenuh That's why they don't make it easy, one has to have legitimate reasons and show they can be a productive citizen rather than all these MILLIONS just flooding in overwhelming the system and helping bankrupt countries making up stories claiming oppression, asylum at the drop of a hat. WHERE DOES IT STOP? There are billions in that situation and they just continue producing more, do Europe, North America take in all of them and why do they keep producing??? We pay for their indiscretions, mistakes, corrupt, crime ridden countries??
And where have you been? Europe, North America's Right wing are literally screaming everyday about the Left's irresponsible open border policies and want it stopped NOW. America alone in ONE year, nearly 5 MILLION. And NO, people want the easy way in, they could care less if it's illegal. They expect quick entry, welfare while they wait a few months then blanket citizenship.

@Rowlph8888 Then search for Wiki's 'List of people from Italy' Be sure to click on all the sub categories also. Then search 'List of people from Britain, or England.' COMPARE...
The Italian Renaissance was to a large extent an expression of humanism, that led to one of the most productive and significant periods in human history in the arts, literature, medicine and science. Greeks fleeing the Turkish invasion of the Byzantine Empire flocked to Italy, and helped spur the Renaissance and interest in ancient Greek texts. The Italian Renaissance also transformed art and humanism across Europe, and set the stage for the Enlightenment. In the words of historian Will Durant (in The Story of Civilization:
The Renaissance): From 1500 to 1600 all Western Europe acknowledged her as the mother and nurse of the new civilization of science and art and the humanities ... So the sixteenth century, when the Renaissance declined in Italy, was an age of exuberant germination in France, England, Germany, Flanders, and Spain.[9] Renaissance architecture of the 15th and 16th centuries was a revival of elements of ancient Greek and Roman architecture.[14] It first developed in Florence, with Brunelleschi, Alberti and Palladio being among its innovators, and soon spread to other Italian cities, and later to France, Germany, England, Russia and other parts of Europe. Opera, Ballet, Italian inventions Leonardo Da Vinci: Greatest Genius To Ever Live...UK essays. Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452 in Anchiano, near Vinci in the Republic of Florence, which is now Italy. He died on May 2, 1519 in Cloux (now Clos-Luce) France. Leonardo da Vinci is believed to be the greatest genius that ever lived. Leonardo had become a master in more fields of any other before or since him. Another BRIT stating the obvious.

“On June 7, 1942, infantry of the Italian X Corps saved Rommel’s 15th Brigade near Gazala, in North Africa, from otherwise certain annihilation. These and numerous other disclosures combine to debunk lingering propaganda stereotypes of the inept, ineffectual Italian armed forces and their allegedly inept commanders and supreme leader. That dated portrayal is rendered obsolete by a true-to-life account of the men and weapons of Mussolini’s War: Volume 1—The Triumphant Years.”
“Among the great misconceptions of modern times is the assumption that Benito Mussolini was Adolf Hitler’s junior partner, who made no significant contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. That conclusion originated with Allied propagandists determined to boost Anglo-American morale, while undermining Axis cooperation.
The Duce’s failings, real or imagined, were inflated and ridiculed, his successes pointedly demeaned or ignored. Italy’s allegedly “bungling navy, ineffectual army—as cowardly as it was ill-equipped —and air force of antiquated biplanes were handily dealt with by the Western Allies,” so the hackneyed, completely false mainstream story goes. So effective was this disinformation campaign that it became postwar history, and is still generally taken for granted, even by otherwise well-informed scholars and students of World War II—even by many Italians themselves!”

From Hitler’s own words:
“Others among the German leadership were less critical, most notably Adolf Hitler. In his address to the Reichstag following the conclusion of the Balkan Campaign, Hitler was complimentary to the Greeks for their "extremely brave resistance", but stated that given the Greek logistical situation, German involvement was not decisive in the Greco-Italian conflict: "The Duce... was convinced that a quick decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming season. I was of the same opinion." He stated that he had no quarrel with Greece (which he had acknowledged as part of the Italian sphere anyway) and that his intervention was aimed solely at the British as he suspected that they planned to set up a threat to his rear in the vein of the Salonika Front
of the First World War: "the German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against Greece, but a preventive measure against the British." He further noted that by the beginning of April the Albanian campaign against the Italians "had so weakened [Greece] that its collapse had already become inevitable", and credited the Italians with having "engaged the greater part of the Greek Army."
[251]
In his private correspondence in April 1942, Hitler said: "It is equally impossible to imagine what might have happened if the Italian front had not been stabilized in Albania, thanks to Mussolini; the whole of the Balkans would have been set alight at a moment when our advance towards the southeast was still in its early stages."

USUAL/BS about Greece: ITALY won, not Germany, not Greece:
Which country occupied 2/3 of Greece the remainder Germany/Bulgaria?
From Hitler’s own words:

Wiki supports this showing the Greeks were within 1 month of capitulating:
“The front stabilized in February 1941, by which time the Italians had reinforced the Albanian front to 28 divisions against the Greeks' 14 divisions (though Greek divisions were larger). In March, the Italians conducted the unsuccessful Spring Offensive
. At this point, losses were mutually costly, but the Greeks had far less ability than the Italians to replenish their losses in both men and materiel, and they were dangerously low on ammunition and other supplies. They also lacked the ability to rotate out their men and equipment, unlike the Italians.”
[4]
Requests by the Greeks to the British for material aid only partly alleviated the situation, and by April 1941 the Greek Army only possessed 1 more month's worth of heavy artillery ammunition and was unable to properly equip and mobilize the bulk of its 200,000–300,000 strong reserves.
[5]
“The German invasion "went smoothly, because the Greek army was concentrated against the Italians".”
[234]

@UnholyWrath3277 The nonsense of the Italian Navy being completely inept:
“This revisionist history convincingly argues that the Regia Marina Italiana (the Royal Italian Navy) has been neglected and maligned in assessments of its contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.”

@UnholyWrath3277 "Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia." (The Second World War: The German War 1939-1942, Jeremy Black, Page 265, Ashgate, 2007)”

@dillonblair6491 I read the Christmas offensive in Wiki and it stated what I said, their "victories" and taking of mass quantities of Italian weapons were exaggerated nonsense that they could never confirm. It was a very limited initial push back that the Italians then regrouped and went on to victory. This is the same nonsense as in Greece, an initial push back was a "victory" The END RESULT is what counts. And in the first Ethiopian war, Italy united just 30 years, they also lost just ONE battle outnumbered 10-1 but it was the deciding battle. PLUS, again, Ethiopia had Russian help with weapons, and other aid.
Sure you know what Germans use of chemicals means, that the Germans were unable to achieve victories in battle w/o the use of them but you single out Italy.
Algerians were virtually defenseless and at the time France was a world power in army and navy, united 100's of years, in 1936 Italy had been a united country only 70 years and had been fighting since 1915 in N. Africa. The British had repeaters because it was still the 1800's and Britain was also a world power in army/navy united for centuries. Two of the predominant if not largest powers of the time vs African tribes with no modern weapons. TRY AGAIN DUDE.🤣😝☺

@DerMegaklugscheier Adolph, you're unable to counter anything I listed? Italy poor with those stats and top 10 economy and military? Don't think so Schultzey! Who has the most titles in motorcycling? Which auto company has the most F1 titles and ranked most powerful brand? Which country has the most iconic auto/motorcycle brands and most DESIRED? Yes, Italians make great pizza and the #1 food most popular in the world. Where does German food/restaurants rank? Better yet, it/they're NEVER mentioned, it's best used as dog food! Who did Adolph admire/follow the most and credit for his movement/existence? Which country/people did he admire the most as he stated in his book 'Table Talk?' Which people civilized whose? The list goes on, all you can mention are a few stats that Germans are good at mechanics, but if you read reviews by YT bloggers and comments, German cars are infamous for breaking down, poor dependability, money pits. You're good at organizing that's it, that's why German cars are selling but for desirability, sexiness, Italian brands are #1. Stick to der/weinerschnitzels Schultzey!

@DerMegaklugscheier Alfa Romeo has competed successfully in Grand Prix motor racing, Formula One, sportscar racing, touring car racing, and rallies. It has competed both as a constructor and an engine supplier, via works entries (usually under the name Alfa Corse or Autodelta), and private entries. The first racing car was made in 1913, three years after the foundation of the company, and Alfa Romeo won the inaugural world championship for Grand Prix cars in 1925. The race victories gave a sporty image to the marque, and Enzo Ferrari founded the Scuderia Ferrari racing team in 1929 as an Alfa Romeo racing team, before becoming independent in 1939. It has had the most wins of any marque in the world.[5] (Ferrari)
Alfa Romeo has won 5 FIA European Formula 3 Championships and 5 FIA European Formula 3 Cups with the support from the Alfa Romeo Stable Euroracing who created motor for the Formula 3 championship, and with the support of Italian motor company Novamotor which work in the Formula 3 competition

@DerMegaklugscheier Throughout its history, the company has been noted for its continued participation in racing, especially in Formula One, where it is the oldest and most successful racing team, holding the most constructors' championships (16) and having produced the highest number of drivers' championship wins (15).[11] Ferrari road cars are generally seen as a symbol of speed, luxury and wealth.[12] Ferrari cars are built at the 165,000 square-metre (16.5-hectare) Maranello factory.[13] In 2014 Ferrari was rated the world's most powerful brand by Brand Finance.[14] In June 2018, a 1963 250 GTO became the most expensive car in history, setting an all-time record selling price of $70 million.[15][16] As of 2021, Ferrari is the 10th-largest car manufacturer by market capitalization, with $52.21 billion.[17]
Alfa Romeo has been involved with motor racing since 1911, when it entered two 24 HP models in Targa Florio competition. Alfa Romeo won the first World Manufacturers' Championship in 1925 and the first AIACR European Championship in 1931 and it scored wins at many races and motoring events such as Targa Florio, Mille Miglia and Le Mans. Great success continued with Formula One, when Alfa Romeo won the first World Formula One Championship in 1950 and won the second Formula One Championship in 1951

Don't be fooled...lazy country...Just a few comments from Germans/foreigners:
"Meanwhile here in Germany: Oh, there is snow, our trains will be late. Oh, there is rain, our trains will be late. Oh, there are 2.381 permanent construction sites on the track, our trains will be late. Oh, our train is not late, but the restaurant car went AWOL. (Actually happened.) Oh, we do have a restaurant car, but it's not functional. Oh, we do have a functional restaurant car, but not the staff to actually use it. Oh, there are no construction sites and we even have a functional restaurant car and enough staff, but the motor tractor broke down. Oh, there is no rain and no snow, there are no construction sites, we have a functioning restaurant car and enough staff and the motor tractor purrs like a cat... but unfortunately, our train drivers just went on strike for the 10th time in the last five years. But do not worry, they will be back on track right after the holiday season!"
"In about 10 years there will be the Brenner base tunnel between Austria und Italy. In Austria we hope to get rid of a lot of Semi trucks because of this tunnel, but we are still waiting on Germany to do their part. The Italians and Austrians really work great together, but the Germans didn't do jack s** t. They signed the Memorandum of Montreux in 1994 and a couple of contracts in the meanwhile, but they didn't even start to improve their railways heading to the tunnel. This is BER and Stuttgart 21 all over again. Kudos to the Italians for these railway Ferraris. I saw one between Milan and Turin. They are also really beautiful."

@Dilley_G45 The nonsense of the Italian Navy being completely inept:
“This revisionist history convincingly argues that the Regia Marina Italiana (the Royal Italian Navy) has been neglected and maligned in assessments of its contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.”

@Samsung-1.9Cu.Ft.Microwave Mixed European...oh now you change it to Scandinavians? The majority of what they see in media, etc are what the majority of Europeans look like. Any southern, eastern European can look northern also and the first Hollywood icon for women was Rudolph Valentino, the first teen idol, Sinatra, Casanova, Don Juan synonymous with romance, lover...Italy was #2 named, France, Spain, tied for #3...Germany, Sweden were towards the bottom. NO they don't see all Americans as only blond, blue eyed that's a preference for a few not all

@jcoker423 Bahaha...
"Although English is a Germanic language, it has Latin influences. Its grammar and core vocabulary are inherited from Proto-Germanic, but a significant portion of the English vocabulary comes from Romance and Latinate sources. A portion of these borrowings come directly from Latin, or through one of the Romance languages, particularly Anglo-Norman and French, but some also from Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish; or from other languages (such as Gothic, Frankish or Greek) into Latin and then into English. The influence of Latin in English, therefore, is primarily lexical in nature, being confined mainly to words derived from Latin and Greek roots."

@Ts_FA18 "Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia."

@noahlenten8360 How flaccid is THAT reply? You might want to ask your girlfriend/wife about that problem, guy. Catholics don't report it...lol...do you know the catholic population of Germany, Austria are 25%, 52% respectively? France is between 47-88%, USA, 25%, Belgium- 58% on and on, yet they're still much higher than Italy. Have anything else, or is it only Italian Catholics that don't report it? And that pedophilia problem exists in every religion, in fact it's rampant in Islam, Buddhist and Protestant, it's just been reported more in the Catholic church which completely shreds your argument Catholics "like to keep it in the family." And what of those crime stats in Australia by ethnicity, is the government keeping those secret in the Catholic family and not reporting them? Same in Germany with violence on women. All a conspiracy being only reported by other religions, ethnic groups?

@pereinarolsson3928 As for Lion, I would call Schveden more domestic cat🤣 Can you point out your influence to Europe and the world?
Roman Empire is considered the most powerful, conquered many world powers of the time, the richest and influenced/made Western civilization as admitted by Brits themselves. Brit Empire was impressive in influence yes, but every conquest was over people fighting with sticks and stones.
"Milan, Florence and Venice, as well as several other Italian city-states, played a crucial innovative role in financial development, devising the main instruments and practices of banking and the emergence of new forms of social and economic organization."
These states alone were more important than Holland. We all know France, Spain, Portugal's histories individually dwarfs any of the other northern combined.
In WW II, Italy's Empire was more than Ethiopia, Libya and was larger than Germany's even though Germany was prepared for WW II, Italy was not thanks to betrayal by Germans (Pact of Steel).
Ferrari, Alfa, Lancia EACH hold the most records in moto sports categories, Ferrari the most powerful brand in the world. Ducati has more FIM Championships than all others COMBINED. Italy produces 40% of the world's super yachts, #1 European furniture exporter and much more. You were saying?

@ramoncastaneda8432 Search YT videos for "What have the Romans ever done for us" and see what Brits say about who taught who.
"Britain’s Roman Legacy...
by Britain Magazine"
They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.

@ramoncastaneda8432 “Others among the German leadership were less critical, most notably Adolf Hitler. In his address to the Reichstag following the conclusion of the Balkan Campaign, Hitler was complimentary to the Greeks for their "extremely brave resistance", but stated that given the Greek logistical situation, German involvement was not decisive in the Greco-Italian conflict: "The Duce... was convinced that a quick decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming season. I was of the same opinion." He stated that he had no quarrel with Greece (which he had acknowledged as part of the Italian sphere anyway) and that his intervention was aimed solely at the British as he suspected that they planned to set up a threat to his rear in the vein of the Salonika Front
of the First World War: "the German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against Greece, but a preventive measure against the British." He further noted that by the beginning of April the Albanian campaign against the Italians "had so weakened [Greece] that its collapse had already become inevitable", and credited the Italians with having "engaged the greater part of the Greek Army."
[251]
In his private correspondence in April 1942, Hitler said: "It is equally impossible to imagine what might have happened if the Italian front had not been stabilized in Albania, thanks to Mussolini; the whole of the Balkans would have been set alight at a moment when our advance towards the southeast was still in its early stages."

@sanitar-otti320 After Italian objections to the Anschluss, the German annexation of Austria, Germany sent three aeroplanes, 10,000 Mauser rifles and 10 million rounds of ammunition to the Ethiopians.[38]
The serviceable portion of the Ethiopian Air Force was commanded by a Frenchman, André Maillet, and included three obsolete Potez 25 biplanes.[39] A few transport aircraft had been acquired between 1934 and 1935 for ambulance work, but the Air Force had 13 aircraft and four pilots at the outbreak of the war.[40] Airspeed in England had a surplus Viceroy racing plane, and its director, Neville Shute, was delighted with a good offer for the "white elephant" in August 1935. The agent said that it was to fly cinema films around Europe. When the client wanted bomb racks to carry the (flammable) films, Shute agreed to fit lugs under the wings to which they could attach "anything they liked". He was told that the plane was to be used to bomb the Italian oil storage tanks at Massawa, and when the CID enquired about the alien (ex-German) pilot practices in it Shute got the impression that the Foreign Office did not object. However, fuel, bombs and bomb racks from Finland could not be got to Ethiopia in time, and the paid-for Viceroy stayed at ita works. The emperor of Ethiopia had £16,000 to spend on modern aircraft to resist the Italians and planned to spend £5000 on the Viceroy and the rest on three Gloucester Gladiator fighters.[41]
There were 50 foreign mercenaries who joined the Ethiopian forces, including French pilots like Pierre Corriger, the Trinidadian pilot Hubert Julian, an official Swedish military mission under Captain Viking Tamm, the White Russian Feodor Konovalov and the Czechoslovak writer Adolf Parlesak. Several Austrian Nazis, a team of Belgian fascists and the Cuban mercenary Alejandro del Valle also fought for Haile Selassie.[42] Many of the individuals were military advisers, pilots, doctors or supporters of the Ethiopian cause; 50 mercenaries fought in the Ethiopian army and another 50 people were active in the Ethiopian Red Cross or nonmilitary activities.[43] The Italians later attributed most of the relative success achieved by the Ethiopians to foreigners, or ferenghi.[44] (The Italian propaganda machine magnified the number to thousands to explain away the Ethiopian Christmas Offensive in late 1935.)[45]

BS/Dude, Italy is a top 10 in economy, military, trading nation, millionaires, wealthiest citizens in the world, this will affect 0.00001% of Italy because of the few who won't visit.
Italy is the 3rd HIGHEST NET contributor to the EU, #2 INDUSTRIAL POWER.
According to the German institute Stiftung Markwirtschaft, in 2018, the aggregate explicit debt + implicit debt of Italy is 122%, lower than the German one at 170%

@CarolineWolterHall Listen to yoiu, that s of s fits you leftist PERFECTLY. Who do you call when one of your leftist buddies breaks into your home or one of the other hundreds of crimes they commit? BLM/Antifa/TERRORIST? Without police our society could not function...got it? That anyone would even serve today with all the leftistF I L T H out there and DemocRAT LIES,HATE, restrictions and propaganda is beyond me.
Sure you had experiences, knowing the leftist propensity of back talking, not complying, criminal histories, rather than complying and talking respectfully, it's to be expected. But then the blame goes to the cop, eh?
Funny, in all my years, I've NEVER had even a hint of an incident. Think a crime free life and complying, speaking respectfully when receiving a moving violation had anything to do with it? Think the floyd and other incidents where they ALL had criminal histories and refused to comply had anything to do with their deaths? Of course this thread agrees with you, 99% leftist just looking to pounce on any excuse to post anti-cop rhetoric. AGAIN...And you haven't a clue as to that "innocent" prior history or what led up to that incident. Conveniently only what the cop did was shown or videotaped.

@echipuosaperlo Spain depends on EU money 5th largest BENEFACTOR, Italy 3rd largest net CONTRIBUTOR. Spain has the highest unemployment behind only Greece. Spain has tourism. low cost labor, construction nothing else and is not in any major world organization, Italy in every one, top 10 economy, military, trading nation, wealthiest citizens in the world, #2 industrial power in the EU. Spain still lives in Franco era, 50 years behind all Europe. Calabria, Italy's poorest region is almost equal to Spain's richest Madrid in salaries. Always Take siesta as all world knows.

“This revisionist history convincingly argues that the Regia Marina Italiana (the Royal Italian Navy) has been neglected and maligned in assessments of its contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.”

@Jcguy123 hahahaha, let's compare the influence, contributions of Italy, France, Greece, Spain, Portugal to those "power houses" of the north, Scandinavia, Belgium, Netherlands, even add Germany, UK. Which side influenced/made the world?? NOT CLOSE, Italy ALONE leads ALL the north.

@giuseppevilla2050 Spain is producing cars because of their low cost labor, another Mexico, Poland and other much smaller economies. Spain is the 4th largest net BENEFACTOR of EU funds, Italy 3rd largest net CONTRIBUTOR. Name a Spanish car, motorcycle, super yacht, fashion, space tech, appliances etc brands any one would know, Italy has literally dozens world famous. Italy is founder/member of the top world organizations, in G7, Spain-NONE. Italy a top 10 military, economy, trading nation, wealthiest citizens in the world, Spain?? See my newest comment of just a couple hours ago for the stats.

Mr. Brit...without America, Commonwealths, India, and yes your French saving Britain's army at Dunkirk in WWII, Britain would have lost BOTH WW's! Just one example:
Over 87,000 Indian troops, and 3 million civilians died in World War II.[2][3] Field Marshal Sir Claude Auchinleck, former Commander-in-Chief, India, stated that Britain "couldn't have come through both wars [World War I and II] if they hadn't had the Indian Army."[4][5]
Another example in WWII, the Lend-Lease Act when Churchill cried to US for help because it was bankrupt and on the cusp of defeat which is the only reason Italy finally lost in N. Africa.

@killgora1 I must say, I always enjoy meeting the Duce. He's a great personality. It's curious to think that, at the same period as myself, he was working in the building trade in Germany. Our programme was worked out in 1919, and at that time I knew nothing about him. Our doctrines are based on the foundations proper to each of them, but every man's way of thinking is a result.
Don't suppose that events in Italy had no influence on us. The brown shirt would probably not have existed without the black shirt. The march on Rome, in 1922, was one of the tuming-points of history. The mere fact that anything ofthe sort could be attempted, and could succeed, gave us an im- petus. A few weeks after the march on Rome, I was received by the Minister Schweyer. That would never have happened otherwise. If Mussolini had been outdistanced by Marxism, I don't know whether we could have succeeded in holding out. At that period National Socialism was a very fragile growth. If the Duce were to die, it would be a great misfortune for Italy.
As I vvalked with him in the gardens of the Villa Bor- ghese, I could easily compare his profile with that of the Roman busts, and I realised he was one of the Caesars. There's no doubt at ali that Mussolini is the heir of the great men of that period.
Despite their weaknesses, the Italians have so many qualities that make us like them. Italy is the country where intelligence created the notion of the State. The Roman Empire is a great political creation, the greatest of all.

@killgora1 Greek war:
Others among the German leadership were less critical, most notably Adolf Hitler. In his address to the Reichstag following the conclusion of the Balkan Campaign, Hitler was complimentary to the Greeks for their "extremely brave resistance", but stated that given the Greek logistical situation,
German involvement was not decisive in the Greco-Italian conflict:
"The Duce... was convinced that a quick decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming season. I was of the same opinion." He stated that he had no quarrel with Greece (which he had acknowledged as part of the Italian sphere anyway) and that his intervention was aimed solely at the British as he suspected that they planned to set up a threat to his rear in the vein of the Salonika Front
of the First World War:
"the German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against Greece, but a preventive measure against the British."
He further noted that by the beginning of April the Albanian campaign against the Italians "had so weakened [Greece] that its collapse had already become inevitable", and credited the Italians with having "engaged the greater part of the Greek Army."
[251]
In his private correspondence in April 1942, Hitler said: "It is equally impossible to imagine what might have happened if the Italian front had not been stabilized in Albania, thanks to Mussolini; the whole of the Balkans would have been set alight at a moment when our advance towards the southeast was still in its early stages."

@glooper-n3x Yeah, so much that Italy had a bigger Empire than the Nazi's. And they weren't sandwiched between enemies, many of the weak European countries they "conquered" had large German populations of sympathizers and they simply crossed borders to win. Italy had to travel up to 3000 miles in to Africa. Plus, if you knew the TRUTH not PROPAGANDA you would know in N. Africa, (the Italians made Rommel but never received the credit) Greece, even Russia, it was the Italians that fought as well or better.
ONE example of MANY:
"Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia." (The Second World War: The German War 1939-1942, Jeremy Black, Page 265, Ashgate, 2007)”

@lecapetien3223 Roman Empire made French/European/Western culture, Renaissance then saved Europe from the dark ages that is why Italy ranked #1 in world history. Greeks had no influence on France except indirectly and from Roman which improved upon Greece and innovated many new ideas not associated with Greece. Without Rome, France has nothing of it's present day culture, food, fashion, language. Napoleon, an Italian made France powerful, famous, Bugatti, France's only auto that is worth anything, Italian.😝
Italian food ranked #1 most popular in the world and #1 in France.
What do I respond? Italy conquered 5 countries, was awarded the territory they won in France, and won the Spanish civil war vs. the Communist. Aside from Russia and Germany no other European country performed better, or stated another way, Italy was the 3rd best performing European country of the war.
France surrendered in 6 weeks🤣Very true the French saved Britain's army at Dunkirk that goes to show how weak they were🤣
Doesn't matter, without African/foreign players, France would be home every WC eating stinky cheese and frog legs.🤣😂

@lecapetien3223 Britain’s Roman Legacy
(Britain Magazine)
They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.
These heirs to the Roman ideal – Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians – all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords.
You CAN'T win this French Fry:face-purple-crying::text-green-game-over::person-turqouise-waving:

Ahead in NOTHING, Spain lives on EU money, Italy is a net CONTRIBUTOR, 3rd largest in EU. Italy's poorest region Calabria has an average salary almost equal to Madrid, Spain's richest. Spain has Europe's 2nd highest unemployment year after year after Greece. Italy is top ten economy, military, trading nation, wealthiest citizens in the world, #2 industrial power in EU, member/founder of all world organizations, member G7, Spain is not. Italy has dozens of world renown brand names in every field from autos, motorcycles to aerospace, can't name even one in Spain. Spain survives on tourism, new construction (it is far behind the richer EU countries) and low cost labor.

Fat Face Bork Laser Sure bud...and where do you see ANY of those other than Fox, You Tube, podcasts, etc...i.e., low visibility. Fox is #1 because it's the ONLY conservative TV outlet so all the viewers are condensed into one station. Please don't insult my intelligence dude. The left has ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, CNN, MSNBC and EVERY other cable shows spewing leftist propaganda 24/7 which overwhelms those watching Fox. TV Land, Bravo, ESPN, Comedy Central on and on ALL LIBERAL. And many do not receive Fox but everyone with a TV receives at least ABC, NBC, CBS which means even watching their local news they're getting more leftist propaganda. Well known, Ivy schools and vast majority of colleges Universities, LEFT leaning. Don't make me laugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@GhostSal Tell me what in H the age of my account and not having a pic has to do with anything?
And your pic and name couldn't be fabricated, right? Do you know how absurd you sound? You have not responded or contradicted one fact either I or Charlie have asked, not one and I have read all your posts. Just repetitive parroting with zero facts or backup.
And every one of your responses are deflections. Your latest fabrication is that in Italy they don't see themselves as white, but as a Mediterranean people dissimilar from all others in heritage. Italians, French, Portuguese, Spaniards and Romanians are all of the same Latin heritage, but with different customs and identities, just as other European groups. But when it comes to RACE, and that's what we're talking about here, ALL Europeans are of the white RACE, there is no separate Latin RACE.
"The Latins were originally an Italic tribe in ancient central Italy from Latium. As Roman power and colonization[1] spread Latin culture, during the Roman Empire, Latins came to mean mostly unified Italic Latin-speaking people and the Latin-speaking people of Italia, Gaul, Hispania and Dacia whose land was settled by Roman colonists."
"What does Latin mean?
The term is usually used to refer to Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries, namely Hispanic America and Brazil."
: Latin
1.
the language of ancient Rome and its empire, widely used historically as a language of scholarship and administration.
2.
a native or inhabitant of a country whose language developed from Latin, especially a Latin American.
music of a kind originating in Latin America, characterized by dance rhythms and extensive use of indigenous percussive instruments.
"eclectic jazz through Latin into soulful grooves"
adjective: Latin
1.
relating to or in the Latin language.
"Latin poetry"
relating to the Western or Roman Catholic Church (as historically using Latin for its rites).
"the Latin patriarch of Antioch"
relating to ancient Latium.
2.
relating to the countries or peoples using languages, especially Spanish, that developed from Latin.
What are the 5 races of humans?
(Black) race.
Australoid (Australian Aborigine and Papuan) race.
Capoid (Bushmen/Hottentots) race.
Mongoloid (Oriental/Amerindian) race.
Caucasoid (White) race.
Capeche? Understand? Got it yet?

@redwolfexr Solution: take them off the streets immediately, if they chose to clean themselves up, train and find a job, if not, prison.
Don't care about your city, talking about gubernatorial and senate races, if they control, your city might not have a choice.

@redwolfexr The "poor" get hundreds of billions EVERY YEAR in donations from who...the poor...or the RICH?? More handouts have done WHAT to fix the situation?? Letting the mentally ill out in the streets has done WHAT to improve their and societies plight?? All you can do is talk woke/BS talking points not the REAL world.
Yeah, I bet the estimated 5,5 MILLION that have entered under BiddeyBoo's 2 year reign somehow got in without you seeing a one?? Your BOIS in sanctuary cities now complaining they can't handle them when dumped in THEIR laps, and it's only a few hundred?? How about the endless drugs being imported by the cartels through the border, especially FENTANYL which has killed 60,000 in just one year??
Yeah I worship Reagan, saved America after peanut/br ain/Carter ruined America and brought down Communism, the system your party MARCHES withAntifa/...Check the affiliation of the founders of BLM-GUY.
Like I said, if they want to end their addiction find jobs, fine...if not-PRISON, don't give me any snowflake solutions that have done NOTHING in 60 years only made it WORSE.

PURE PROPAGANDA BS from people like you. Italy fought as bravely and in instances BETTER than the cowardly Nazi's who retreated in N. Africa and Russia leaving the Italians behind.
1. Italy conquered 5 countries, was awarded the territory they won in France, and won the Spanish civil war vs. the Communist. Italy was the 3rd best performing European country of the war and their Empire was LARGER than the Nazi's.
2. Just TWO examples:
"Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia." (The Second World War: The German War 1939-1942, Jeremy Black, Page 265, Ashgate, 2007)”
“On June 7, 1942, infantry of the Italian X Corps saved Rommel’s 15th Brigade near Gazala, in North Africa, from otherwise certain annihilation. These and numerous other disclosures combine to debunk lingering propaganda stereotypes of the inept, ineffectual Italian armed forces and their allegedly inept commanders and supreme leader. That dated portrayal is rendered obsolete by a true-to-life account of the men and weapons of Mussolini’s War: Volume 1—The Triumphant Years.”

@kchiang4 Trump never had 37% approval (BS). .He started no insurrection and stated to march PEACEFULLY in his speech that day. 2. SS agent wrote a book on Biden's philandering AND caught on video "touching" underage girls of Congressional families and do I need to get into the crackhead son's history? 3. Called it the China virus because China accused the American military of starting it..did u know that BUD? 4. DemocRATS like Pelosi, DeBlasio NYC politicians up to days before the pandemic, as late as early March were saying it was just like the flu and encouraging people to go out, and it was TRUMP who had the vaccine passed in RECORD time. 5. Climate ALWAYS changes BUD, how come you people no longer call it GloBULL warming just as we were going to freeze in the 70's??HAHAHAHA..And China, Russia, India the real polluters just continue/FOOL while sucker America continues paying the bulk of this SHAM Paris Climate Accords. The French rioted because they don't want to pay the taxes for that SHAM..LMAO! 6. BobblehedJoe... Just a clown and laughing stock on the international stage. 7. Bobblehead sleeps all day, fed questions by the press written by his people, refuses to have press conferences, answer unscripted questions, numerous videos of him unable to speak coherently, read a teleprompter, completely dazed and confused, LMAO 8. Trump hadBALLS and confronted everyone, NO world leader would confront or cross him. 9.actively polarizing the country -EXACTLY what the hypocrite DemoCRATS do. 10.speeches are full of lies. 11.having the 99% LIBERAL MSM fix the election for him. The list goes on...
TRY AGAIN...DUDE!

@jsully8076 Dude, there's no sense in "discussing" this with you because if you don't know what the problem is by now after 60 years of LIBERAL policies destroying America you're HOPELESS.
Who's doing the shooting? And there's THOUSANDS more coming daily thanks to Biden. Who wants to defund police? Who has revised felonies into misdemeanors eliminated jail time, lets out murderers and felons repeatedly. Allowed BLM & Antifa to roam the streets looting, rioting, murdering, allowed drugs, pornography, abortion, divorce, immoral behavior, disrespect for law and order, parents to run rampant? I could on and on.
I already KNOW what the problem is and don't need to "figure it out." I'm sure you suspect or know this but in your leftist snowflake world now believe some magic wand quick solution will fix all this? You believe in the toothfairy too?
You don't want to take the concerted effort and hard decisions needed to change this but think this can be solved by government or talking this out. There is NO solution with the present day DemocRAT Party, they have gone off the leftist deep end, the only chance is to wipe them out of America and into oblivion and allow Conservatives to make the decisions. And even then there are still RINO traitors roaming about such as those that betrayed Trump, so GOOD LUCK talking out a solution on this thread.

@jsully8076 That's the problem today, all the PC/BS, and this so called empathy. That's why America is in this mess, the courteous, afraid to be tough Republicans like the 2 dodos McCain and thatBUM Romney who were too afraid to criticize Obumbler, the RaceBaiter n' Chief who initiated this mess and gave America his 2 terms. Where's your empathy for the people suffering under the insufferable DemocRATS?
It's obvious you're one of them since you don't deny it, but I'm supposed to show CRIMINALS like these "empathy." What's the news on the 6 people murdered in Wisconsin by the racist, CRIMINAL, let out on no bond, mile long rap sheet, being totally covered up by the MSM, Darrell Brooks? But bombarded 24/7 for over 2 years about the BS "police brutality" Floyd and the rest? You know, all those that refused to obey police orders and that's the reason they died? Which led to thousands having their properties, lives destroyed, killed FOR A TOTALLY FALSE narrative? Any EMPATHY?
Now you wonder why the incidents as in this video happen 24/7, when 60 years ago, they were virtually non existent? Wonder why? Yet you're clueless as to why this happens?
I could care less for your respect, since you seem to have no respect for truly ending this mess. And I'm not yelling, I'm stating FACTS.

@philipsmith7904 He was as close to a non-politician swamp rat as America has ever had that's why your swamp rat CNN, MSDNC, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS and every station but Fox wanted him out, including coward RINO's like Romney, Cheney, Murkowski, Collins and others.
That you defend those outlets and a career swamp rat like dementedBiden&Hunter say's everything DUDE.
You're kind are out in '22, Trump wins in '24, DUDE...just look at the approval ratings including VP Pruneface.

@prettypuff1 "No other country in Europe can claim the continuity of civilization achieved in Italy"... Harry Hearder - Italy a Short History.
Wiki:”Italy is considered the birthplace of Western civilization and a cultural superpower. Italy has been the starting point of phenomena of international impact such as the Magna Graecia, the Roman Empire, the Roman Catholic Church, the Renaissance, the Risorgimento and the European integration. During its history, the nation gave birth to an enormous number of notable people. Both the internal and external faces of Western culture were born on the Italian peninsula, whether one looks at the history of the Christian faith, civil institutions (such as the Senate), philosophy, law, art, science, or social customs and culture. Italy was home to many well known and influential civilizations, including the Etruscans, Samnites and the Romans,”
#1 in World Heritage sites, number of art works.
Originators of the Latin language the basis of French, Spanish, Romanian languages, 50% of English language is based on Latin.
Opera, Ballet... modern cement, Capitalism, Universities, Banking... just 6 of the dozens of inventions indispensable to modern society.
Napoleon, France's greatest general was Italian.

@V0NRH1NE Next, how did Germany, Sweden and other Nordics fare in this video?? BELOW the others. How do they fair, including the UK in other surveys?? Italy, France, Spain are in virtually every top 10, even #1 and Sweden usually the only Nordic. Who has the reputation as romantic, lovers, handsome...European Mediterraneans or Germans/UK/Nordics? Casanova, Valentino, Don Juan, Sinatra are synonymous with romance. Name one German/Nordic. LOL.

@V0NRH1NE How was Japan culturally influenced by Germany? Can't wait to hear this!
Dude, France's language, culture is predominately Mediterranean, taken from the original Latins, Romans, Italy. It was ORIGINALLY under Roman influence for centuries, so was Britain, that's why the British credit Rome/Italy culturally. John Cabot (aka GIOVANNI CABOTO) brought the English exploration/settlement of America, Columbus discovered it, named after Amerigo Vespucci, funded by the Spanish King. Napoleon was ITALIAN, only born in Corsica which had just recently been ceded by Italy after 1000 years under Italy.
And I see you avoided telling me how America is all Germanic/Nordic looking people? lol

@V0NRH1NE They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.
These heirs to the Roman ideal – Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians – all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords.

@ms.annthrope415 BALONEY PROPAGANDA...without Italy, Germany would have surrendered 1-2 years earlier, especially if Italy had allied with the Allies, Germany didn't stand a chance. Italians MADE Rommel and won in the Balkans, N. Africa and aided in Russia but never given credit. Just two examples of many:
"Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia." (The Second World War: The German War 1939-1942, Jeremy Black, Page 265, Ashgate, 2007)”
“On June 7, 1942, infantry of the Italian X Corps saved Rommel’s 15th Brigade near Gazala, in North Africa, from otherwise certain annihilation. These and numerous other disclosures combine to debunk lingering propaganda stereotypes of the inept, ineffectual Italian armed forces and their allegedly inept commanders and supreme leader. That dated portrayal is rendered obsolete by a true-to-life account of the men and weapons of Mussolini’s War: Volume 1—The Triumphant Years.”

@jonathanodude6660 There's no empirical proof CO2 harms the ozone layer or causes climate change, only theories. Every time there's a climate event such as hurricanes, typhoons, etc., the environmentalist cry "climate change" The problem is when the FACTS show there were just as many or more violent incidents a century or centuries ago.
And read my comments above, this Nepal guy blames it on the West, when his country is just miles from India, China the 2 biggest polluters, so even if you want to believe his fantasy, it's them not the West. They refuse to adhere to the climate accords so the Western snowflakes keep crying and blaming themselves...hilarious!
P.S. All these "green" alternatives MUST be powered by fossil fuels, PLUS this in turn causes grave environmental damage needing to find the elements necessary. The west stops drilling for oil, gas, but then imports from rogue nations who do WHAT-drill for the oil and gas, so NO difference except higher prices...🤣😂😛

@jonathanodude6660 Everything you said is UNPROVEN THEORIES...NOTHING more. Explain how just 40 years ago your buds were warning of gloBULL FREEZING. Show me ONE of these "scientist" that can EMPIRICALLY PROVE MAN is causing climate change.
AGAIN, Climates have changed since the earth was formed, Greenland was green, now mostly ice. It's well documented there were MORE hurricanes and fiercer decades ago same with other events.
China and India are 40% of the population, what they produce in emissions per person is irrelevant, they are still the worst polluters by FAR. Cities there are always in a polluted fog. I've seen videos of vloggers who say they can't go out of their hotels without choking , eyes watering from the pollution.
Alternatives USE FOSSIL FUELS in one way or the other or they CANNOT FUNCTION. The elements needed to power 7+ billion people through alternatives would take astronomical amounts that may not exist, and astronomical costs to excavate with FOSSIL FUELS needed to do so. Wind, solar have been around for 50 years and predicted to take at least and probably much more than another 50 years to be viable and available to everyone. Just watch some of the horror stories by homeowners WITH solar panels on YT. NO savings, exorbitant costs, scams, etc.
The entire thing is a SCAM perpetrated by the GREEN crowd and it showed itself the day afterr JoeyBOI was elected. Oil prices went up, leading to inflation, and Russia's invasion. Good job Joe!

So? They're all over Europe but their DNA is NOT "assimilated" into Italians...
We estimated that the highest frequency of this haplogroup in hosts is also low (Bulgaria=3.1%, Slovakia=1.9%, Spain=1.2%, Greece=3%, Romania=2.1%, and Ukraine=7.1%; Supplementary Table S8). In agreement with our results, no traces of haplogroups H-M52, H-M82, or I-P259 were found in an extensive data set of 3136 non-Roma Europeans typed at similar resolution (472 Germans, 96 Danish, 340 Belgians, 90 Dutch, 370 Czechs, 520 Polish, 221 individuals from the United Kingdom, and 1027 Italians....In contrast, male gene flow from hosts to Roma is much more frequent, although variable, ranging between 17% in Romania and up to 46% in Hungary.

@UnholyWrath3277 Why would Columbus go to the Americas to find Chinese goods??? That's hilarious! And the Romans never got as far as China, you're thinking of the city states, Marco Polo, etc. China was not even connected or affected by the plague, it was Europe, North Africa and WEST Asia. China only came to prominence the past 3 decades when they took western ideas, Capitalism, , it's been irrelevant, poor, for centuries before and was conquered by tiny Japan just 80 years ago. And you're comparing a country that has nearly TWICE the population of ALL Europe, that's Europe, America, plus nearly half a billion more! Their development has been impressive, but it came from the West and the vast majority of Chinese are still poor to middle class, maybe 5% are rich.

@dillonblair6491 In the Wiki article of the "Christmas Offensive" it isn't called the "Christmas Victory," is it, BUD...all the claims made by Ethiopia of Italian casualties and captures were NEVER verified, BUD. It briefly stopped Italy's offensive, they regrouped and went on to VICTORY, BUD..Ethiopia never won ****, BUD.
France was a world power along with Britain in the early 1800's BUD and even with powerful army, navy, modern weapons took months, years, DECADES to control African countries who had only spears, arrows, no allies, BUD.
Search List of Wars involving Italy (Wiki) and Italy Military History by Europia History (You Tube) BUD, then tell me Italy won only 1 war.
That's not counting medieval times when Italian states were the most powerful, richest in Europe ,most of the world, Roman Empire, richest, most powerful, influential in HISTORY...BUD.
Italy's WW II Empire was LARGER than Germany's BUD.🤣😂😝🤪😜

@dillonblair6491 DUDE, the Gothic Wars were between mostly non Italian tribes Why T "F" you even bringing that up? LAUGHABLE.
You know me? Have my DNA tests? BWHAHAHA...
I stated besides Russia, Germany DUDE.
As I stated without America, Commonwealths, India, French, Britain would have LOST. Search YT for Dunkirk 1940 - How the French Army saved GB
"Over 87,000 Indian troops, and 3 million civilians died in World War II.[2][3] Field Marshal Sir Claude Auchinleck, former Commander-in-Chief, India, stated that Britain "couldn't have come through both wars [World War I and II] if they hadn't had the Indian Army."[4][5]"
France, Poland surrendered in less than 6 weeks. Greece-LOST to Italy, Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania-DID NOTHING, Finland, switched sides 3X and lost territory to Russia.🤣😂😅😆😝😝🤪😜

@dillonblair6491 "because it depopulated Italy..."
PROVE that statement!
Italy won and was given Menton in France, BUD, the rest went to Germany, never stated otherwise...Italy WON in Greece, not Germany...Hitlers speech in another comment...2/3 of Greece was Italian occupied...Yeah, Churchill was desperate and the British knew they were about to lose, Lend-Lease saved them and it's the reason Britain won Operation Compass, plus all the other aid and countries that aided. Without it, Britain would have LOST, plain&simple. The point also, Britain was not alone fighting, although that's what the Brits always want you to believe. Your analogy about Russia is RIDICULOUS.
Whatever DUDE, Poland lost. Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria did NOTHING, Bulgaria received a small part of Greece w/o even firing a shot. Romania's contribution was oil, Hungarians laid down their arms in Russia and SWITCHED SIDES w/o notifying Hitler.
STILL WAITING!!

@dillonblair6491 You linked NOTHING, not even sausages🤡
Already told you 🤡Britain, France were world powers at the time not in decline.
America won independence on it's own, try again 🤡They were aided by France, Spain, the Dutch and even Italians, Germans and more🤡The Soviet Union was formed by a coalition of many states that were powers at the time, Germans formed a unified coalition BUT Italy were many states that had been fighting civil wars for many years..
Depleted fighting and conquering over 25 years winning a foreigners civil war for them 🤡
Yep, Lend-Lease Act started 9/'40 only reason they won Operation Compass. Run out of Ethiopia when, after massive Allied help to Britain🤡until then in control for 5 YEARS🤡
Annexed after an Allied coalition was needed not until then🤡
Yes and Britain was on the brink of defeat, surrendering in Singapore, smashed at the Battle of Britain, losing in N. Africa, only survived because of Hitlers stupidity by not finishing the job, British generals admitted they would have lost the war if the battle continued even a few weeks more. Churchill then went crying to America, Britain was bankrupt and America, Commonwealths, India saved them. French saved their army at Dunkirk, there's a video on it. 😝😝
Brits ran in Greece and Greeks complained they weren't getting the supplies requested, promised. Greeks were ONE month from defeat when Germans arrived and Hitler said it was an ITALIAN victory...keep repeating/BS, parrot. And it was the Italians who made Rommel 🤡

@dillonblair6491 Who won the Ethiopian war and occupied it for 5 years only losing to Allied forces?? EVERY power lost battles, Italy lost 1 battle in EACH war, THAT'S IT.
You think depopulated means every Italian was removed from the peninsula??? BAHAHAHA What utter/BS. aND THESE DEFEATS WERE AT THE VERY TAIL END OF A 1000 year empire, THE GREATEST OF THEM ALL...SO W T F is your point? Every Empire has ultimately failed, defeated.
Italy was at war over 25 years BUD before the start of WW II, THEY TOOK CONTROL OF lIBYA IN 1915 then went on to conquer the rest.
Russia was a conglomerate of many ethnics, states just stop the semantic/BS
Britain was winning only in their sphere of conquered colonies, up until '40 they had fled Libya or did not contest in the other Italian conquests. So the Lend Lease act only affected Britain against Germany, how did that work, every piece of equipment sent said use vs Germany only? 🤣That aid directly affected Operation Compass which started just 4 months after aid. Not struggling vs Italy?, see my other comments DUDE.
Hitlers aid in N. Africa was as much a hindrance as aid because of German blunders, everything Italy had won up to that point was done by Italy ALONE..ZERO German help. It was Germans BETRAYAL that caused Italy to be hoodwinked into WW II and that's when Italian failures started.
Yeah BUD, the Commonwealths and India were under British control and it means the British had help from all those countries while Italy fought ALONE. You continue skirting that inconvenient fact along with the French saving their behind.
Show me that surrender treaty that Greece had over Italy 🤡while Italy controlled 2/3 of Greece🤡.
NOW, tell me your ethnicity which I know u don't have the knuts to do and we'll see what they've achieved in history in comparison. You can only WISH they have the same war record as Italy as surely they can NEVER compete in history achievements.

@dillonblair6491 You still too stupid to realize there were NO 3 wars, but 2? Says it in wiki🤡 It states the first dispute ended in friendship (that's the one you falsely claim as a war) which later turned into a dispute again, then later into the first war🤡. So Italy lost an entire 2 battles, not 1 in the 2 wars, W T "F" is your point🤡 when England, France other colonial powers did the same even losing to tiny unarmed Haiti and fighting tribes of arrows and spears while Italy fought modern armed Ethiopians🤡
Italy won control of Libya in 1915 and continued fighting/conquering African countries, until 1940🤡, that 25 years but I forgot you can't count. Plus Albania, winning the Spanish civil war, territory in France before America started supplying Britain in '40 to save their behinds. And just prior Italy defeated the Ottomon Empire, another WIN🤡
Give me a link that says Italy was completely "depopulated" of all Italians, Romans, Italic tribe.🤡And again parrot boy, that was at the end of the 1000 year Roman Empire and included multiple foreign tribes not Rome/Italy 1 on 1 vs another power so why you keep bringing that up except for that's the only war you can ante up that shows some kind of loss for Rome and you think justifies your BS claim Romans disappeared off the face of the earth during that time. Your desperation reeks.
I said Russia/Soviet Union was made up of several Russian states, you spin yarn better than a spider🤡
And those colonial Africans did little but quickly surrender as in Operation Compass when the heat was on compared to European aid are you now trying to equate the 2??? Another desperation move.
Italy was initially pushed back into Albania they didn't lose Albania until the Allies helped and AFTER Italy had conquered Greece. Learn the difference and stop making up more crap to fit your BS narrative. AGAIN, Hitler say's otherwise🤡and show me the surrender treaty Italy signed🤡while they occupied 2/3 of Greece
The videos I provided shows different 🤡, Italy beat multiple modern powers unlike the Brits, Spaniards, French, Dutch whose "Empires" didn't defeat one modern country with weapons or army.
I knew you didn't have the knuts to reveal your ethnicity since they can't hold a candle to Italy's military or economic history. Lazy as in top 10 economy/military even today, greatest country in world history? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

mikhail gorbachev Dude, what ethnicity are you? Fiat owns Chrysler and is still here, 8th largest in the world. And if I could link surveys, Fiat is in top 10 or 15 in surveys for reliability.
The Fiat 131 Abarth was a very successful rally car replacing the 124. Between 1976 and 1981 the Fiat 131 won 18 World Rally Championship events,[64] resulting in winning the WRC Drivers Championship two times: in 1978, and in 1980, and winning the WRC Constructors Championship three times: in 1977, 1978, and in 1980.[65]
Fiat Automobiles has received many international awards for its vehicles, including nine European Car of the Year awards, the most of any other manufacturer, and it ranked many times as the lowest level of CO
2 emissions by vehicles sold in Europe.[7]

mikhail gorbachev Throughout its history, the company has been noted for its continued participation in racing, especially in Formula One, where it is the oldest and most successful racing team, holding the most constructors championships (16) and having produced the highest number of drivers' championship wins (15).[11] Ferrari road cars are generally seen as a symbol of speed, luxury and wealth.[12] Ferrari cars are built at the 165,000 square-meter (16.5-hectare) Maranello factory.[13] In 2014 Ferrari was rated the world's most powerful brand by Brand Finance.[14] In June 2018, a 1963 250 GTO became the most expensive car in history, setting an all-time record selling price of $70 million.[15][16] As of 2021, Ferrari is the 10th-largest car manufacturer by market capitalisation, with $52.21 billion.[17]

@purplehairedwzrd Stop spreadingBS. Sicilians are Italian, European and WHITE.
I searched and clicked on this article by random:
A couple, takes a DNA test she is British, he Sicilian. Results:
She: British, Northern European and...
"The only exciting part was 0.1% African. Wherever did that come from? Being one-thousandth African suggests you had one African ancestor in early medieval times. The mind boggles."
He:"For Hubby, we got 81% Italian, a lot of “broadly southern European” and a little “broadly northern European” (this means they cannot work out exactly where it comes from), a little bit of Spanish and a little more French and German, about 4.4% Middle Eastern and North African, and about 1% west (sub-Saharan) African."
What I've always said, the DNA in the vast majority of Italians and Sicilians of MENA origin is at MOST, 3-6%. Sicilians have more north European, Greek, Spanish DNA than MENA. Even Germans have shown North or Sub Saharan African DNA.

@purplehairedwzrd The earliest identifiable (pre-historic) "modern human" inhabitants of Sicily were present at least 10,000 to 12,000 years ago and many lived in caves. People are interested in the physical appearance of their ancestors, whether recent or ancient. For lack of a more descriptive term, the earliest Sicilians would be identified as "Caucasoid" in appearance.
Haplogroup M173, associated with the descendants of the first waves of humans into Europe (often seen as a branch of the Cro-Magnon haplogroup M343, or R1b), is widespread in Sicily and indeed across Europe, where many English (including some 70% of Englishmen in southern England) and French share it. Today it is most prevalent (90%) among the Spanish and Irish. M173 originated about 30,000 years ago. In effect, some 80% of western Europeans living today are in this haplogroup. Though the neolithic Proto-Sicanians were probably part of this haplogroup, many Sicilians more likely inherited it from ancestors descended from subsequent foreign conquerors arriving from the North and West, Sicels, Romans, Visigoths, Vandals, Normans, Lombards, Swabians (Germans), Angevins (French) and Spaniards among them, but possibly from some Greeks as well. (These observations are only intended as generalities.)
In Sicily one of the most interesting haplogroups to geneticists is the much more recent M172 (also called J2), probably introduced about 8,000 BC with the introducton of agriculture to a native people sometimes referred to as the "Proto-Sicanians." At least 21% of Sicilians carry the marker for this haplotype (probably about 19% throughout Europe), and no more than 10% of people in regions such as Spain, but it is very frequent in the Middle East, Ethiopia and particularly the Caucasus region of west-central Asia (where it reaches 90%), and is present among some central-Europeans and north-Africans.

@amg9878 OGNI paese è colpevole di "omerta" quando si tratta di criminalità e OGNI paese ha una mafia, bande, sindacati o TUTTI E TRE. L'America ha TUTTI E TRE, ed è il numero 1 in quasi tutte le statistiche sul crimine, più gli esseri invasi dal crimine delle bande dei centri urbani, non solo dei cartelli.
E tu dici che gli altri parlano ****, e tu? Hai controllato le statistiche sulla criminalità?? Sapete che l'Italia ha MENO DELLA META' dei crimini denunciati dalla Germania? L'Italia ha un tasso di omicidi più basso della Corea del Sud, di alcuni paesi scandinavi e più basso in molte altre categorie, uno dei tassi più bassi del MONDO??
La Corea ha una mafia, suppongo che siano tutti impegnati a tacere, e i mafiosi giapponesi? Mafie dell'Europa dell'Est, mafie balcaniche, cinesi, africane, sudamericane, ecc ecc, quindi devi dire OGNI paese ha un caso di "omerta". E amico, questi non sono gli anni '90, la mafia italiana ha molta meno influenza in Italia, il suo potere principale e le entrate provengono dalla droga. Smettila di diffondere questo scenario da incubo sulla mafia e la criminalità italiana, non è vero nella misura in cui affermi.

@kloschuessel773 This is how...“This revisionist history convincingly argues that the Regia Marina Italiana (the Royal Italian Navy) has been neglected and maligned in assessments of its contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.”
“A popular impression in the United States of the Regia Marina, the Italian Navy, during World War II is that because its powerful surface fleet spent so much time in port, it was more effective as a fleet in being – in other words, for what it could do – than for what it actually did. As with all generalities, there are exceptions, and in this case that exception was its Decima Flottiglia MAS (10th Light Flotilla), one of the most effective units in the history of special operations.”

@Lilhajxjk274 1.Estimated 100 million in the western hemisphere NOT the US alone.
2. You NA just like Africans, Indians, Asians, etc. killed one another by the millions
3. If not for the Europeans, the Americas would be a barren wasteland of still warring tribes dying of starvation, disease and you wouldn't be sitting in your comfortable living room with modern tech, AC/Heat, running water, all the food you need, etc., so quit your whining, no one but you's gives a ****.

@Haim95 By the STATS...Top 10 in the world in economy, military, trading nation, millionaires, wealthiest citizens...#2 industrial power in the EU...In terms of private wealth, Italy ranks #2 after Hong Kong in private wealth to GDP ratio . And even if you want to go by your stat, Central/North Italy is comparable to all but a few richer areas in Germany. Southern Italy drags down the per capita stats but even there, in salary, Calabria, Italy's poorest region is comparable almost to Spain's richest, Madrid.

@Haim95 As for immigrants to Denmark, from 2020 stats, Italy is the 3rd LOWEST country, there are 3X as many Germans, 2X as many Norwegians, Swedes, UK than Italians. If you go by population % by country, the Italian total is minuscule compared to the rest.
As for net emigrants to immigrants, Italy is the 7th LOWEST in Europe at 4.9, lower than Germany at 5.0 meaning less Italian emigration, more foreign immigrants.
For 2013, '14 immigration to Italy from USA, UK, Netherlands, Poland was up substantially. Going by UT videos a growing number of western, northern Europeans, Americans, Canadians are buying homes in Italy. And that's despite Italy being notoriously difficult to immigrate to because of it's lengthy process and requirements. Even getting a drivers license is very difficult.

@hellboy0189 Quello scenario è lo stesso di tutti i paesi, dimmi uno che è quasi perfetto. Ho visto molti video di coreani, giapponesi, americani che dicevano lo stesso. Sì, ce ne sono molti in quei paesi che vivono con i genitori per mancanza di lavoro o per ansie sociali dovute alle tante pressioni. Hanno anche una parola per questo a seconda del paese. Molti vivono in completa solitudine non volendo alcuna interazione, io non la vedo così tanto in Italia. Quindi per i loro successi ne hanno molti che pagano a caro prezzo, ma si vedono solo i negativi dell'Italia.
Condanni l'intero paese a causa della tua situazione senza paragonarla ad altri che stanno molto peggio o altrettanto cattivi. Divertiti ovunque tu sia, e se sei così felice, allora perché continuare a lamentarti dell'Italia?
E i giornalisti italiani denunciano continuamente i problemi dell'Italia, non so da dove ti viene l'idea, loro no. Ancora una volta, leggi i commenti come tu stesso suggerisci, pensano che sia un burlone.

@lorenzoventura7701 So man can undo millions of years of climate, oceanic and land change in a couple centuries? Under what theory do you think that's possible and you nor anyone else has produced any empirical evidence it's due to man made emissions.
Second, we are moving to a green energy policy, example electric cars. It still takes fossil fuels to run the factories that produce the parts. America is producing less oil, gas thanks to leftist but then runs to Saudi Arabia to ask them to make up the difference making America poorer and more vulnerable, the Saudi's and other rogue nations richer while producing the same amount of emissions. Make sense to you? Wind and solar are no where near being feasible yet after decades of trying with black outs common. Examples, Sri Lanka, Netherlands, Guyuana moving to greener energy, it's caused chaos, higher costs, food shortages.
Keep believing Greta Thunberg, the teen age wunder kid scientist🤣😂

@Squintel7 Really? The K-pop men groups especially don't get surgery? Searched it...this is the response:
"Yes, Korean men get plastic surgery, and the number of men undergoing the procedure is increasing: "
Best looking in the world? Search it, they are in virtually no top 10 list, it's European, American. They're rated high only among Japanese, Korean, Filipino women, i.e., Asians. European, Americans are in top 10 among every racial, nationality groups.

And what about Ferrari, Alfa, Maserati, Pagani, Fiat, Bugatti(Italian found), Lancia, and more?
What about Aprilia, Moto Guzzi, Vespa, and other Italian brands?

@Scott-vk8cr And Italy's economy is more flexible/diverse than Japan, Germany, both are heavily dependent on their auto industries and both are struggling, being surpassed or market shares lost to China, S. Korea, US. Italy's economy has done better than Germany's past few years.
"For example, just a couple days ago the OECD reported that Italy's per capita Household Income, otherwise known as 'discretionary' income, rose by 3.4% in the 1st quarter of 2024, easily leading all G7 countries, and mainly all others as well. In % terms, that's 250% more than in Germany, who was second, then nearly 700% more than Canada and France, 1,150% more than Britain, and a 'mere' 1,700% more than the United States. That's pretty amazing I'd say, and not just for this 'one quarter' either, it has been trending 'similarly' for many quarters now, totalling years at this point. Now GDP of the U.S. grew at 1.3% in the 1st quarter, and all the other countries GDP grew at the same or higher than Italy's 0.2%. Point being, Italy was easily #1, and Germany was #2. So it again shows how GDP is an extremely meaningless stat, as to how all the citizen's 'financial well being' truthfully is. Because while the U.S. 'economy' grew at over 600% that of Italy's, in comparison, financial well being of the 'people' of Italy went up 1,700% more than for the American people. Shocking, but accurate. It's these kinds of very Meaningful stats that lead to articles like this."

@Scott-vk8cr Italy is #2 INDUSTRIAL power of EU, 4 x more food exports than Japan, has 1/2 the population yet ranks nearly equal in total world exports. Leader by far in luxury brands which requires innovation, marketing skills, leader in manufacturing, innovation of super yachts, autos, bikes, trucks, weaponry including small arms and various military armaments from subs to helicopters. ASI it's space program has a long list of accomplishments including firsts and generates the 7th highest revenue in the world, 3rd country in the world to launch a satellite, construction and operation of the International Space Station, notable successes in the fields of astrophysics and cosmology.
As for living standards, wealth, I listed their rankings, equal to or surpassing virtually all countries and top 10 in every major wealth category.
As for emigration, Italy is the 7th LOWEST in NET emigrants to immigrants below Germany, and the number of Germans emigrating to Italy in '23 is higher than that of Italians emigrating to Germany.
The highest % per capita of scientist/engineers are in countries like S. Korea, Sweden, Finland, Belgium, Iceland, Austria...Italy ranks above all in wealth/GDP ratios, # of world famous brands, military, etc., so that stat is not indicative of a countries wealth, status, importance.
Japan has been known for hiding it's true # of unemployed/homeless and their #'s cannot be relied upon as accurate.

Modern cement, Universities, Capitalism, Banks, Italian inventions. World as we know it today=ITALY.

@beau4170 Source: Courage and Cowardice in the North African Campaign: The Eighth Army and Defeat in the Summer of 1942, War in History, 2013, 20(1) 99–122 by Dr Jonathan Fennell
Dr Jonathan Fennell of King College, London has written a very insightful article about the poor combat performance of the British 8th Army in the summer of 1942. Accusations of cowardice and lack of courage were bandied about in the upper echelons of the British high command and war cabinet. Of course, any hint of cowardliness was hushed up and kept from the general public.
According to Dr Fennell, the situation of cowardliness and low morale among the rank and file of the British soldier and infantryman leading to an unwillingness to fight and a distinct tendency to surrender, that General Auchinleck, “with the unanimous agreement of his army commanders, forwarded to the War Office a recommendation for the reintroduction of the death penalty for ‘desertion in the field’ and for ‘misbehaving in the face of the enemy in such a manner as to show cowardice’.”
The situation was so bad, that Auchinleck could not wait for a reply from the War Office to his request that he issued a general order to his senior officers that they were to ‘take the strongest possible action against any individual of whatever rank who refused to conform to orders. If necessary, in order to stop panic, there must be no hesitation in resorting to extreme measures, such as shooting an individual who cannot otherwise be stopped’.”
To back up his request for the death penalty, Auchinleck provided further statistics to support his argument, reporting that:

@beau4170 Even your countryWOMEN know who took Britties out of cave:Britain’s Roman Legacy
They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.
These heirs to the Roman ideal – Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians – all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords.

@babuvangu7220 Latest is 7.25% same as France and UK near 5%, and in Sicily it's HALF what you posted. Poorer areas of every European, Asian, N. American countries can have the same or more rates. And Dude, Italy is a top 10 in economy, military, trading nation, millionaires, wealthiest citizens in the world, this will affect 0.00001% of Italy because of the few who won't visit.
yeah, founding member of g7 and all major world organizations 😂🤣😛

@starkr111 First...Today, Italy is a top 10 economy, military and here are some FACTS, GUY...
The richest in Europe in savings and one of the highest in home ownership,
have 4X less debt per household than the Dutch,
8th in the world in household net worth, 4th in Europe,
7th in the world in National Wealth,
4th in total contributions to the EU among many others.
If it is so hopelessly noncompetitive (from official eu statistics):industrial production by country Germany recorded the highest value of sold production, equivalent to 29 % of the EU total, followed by Italy (18 %), France (12 %), Spain (9 %), Poland (5 %) and the Netherlands (3%). The other 21 EU Member States contributed with smaller shares (up to 3 %).14 lug 2021
Want MORE GUY?

@starkr111 Second...
On 21 June, with a Franco-German armistice about to be signed, the Italians launched a general offensive along the Alpine front, the main attack coming in the northern sector and a secondary advance along the coast. The Italian offensive penetrated a few kilometres into French territory against strong resistance but stalled before its primary objectives could be attained, the coastal town of Menton, situated directly on the Italian border, being the most significant conquest.
On the evening of 24 June, an armistice was signed at Rome. It came into effect just after midnight on 25 June, at the same time as the armistice with Germany (signed 22 June). Italy was allowed to occupy the territory it had captured in the brief fighting, a demilitarised zone was created on the French side of the border, Italian economic control was extended into south-east France up to the Rhône and Italy obtained certain rights and concessions in certain French colonies. An armistice control commission, the Commissione Italiana d'Armistizio con la Francia (CIAF), was set up in Turin to oversee French compliance

@starkr111 You don't care about stats because they destroy your/BSLYING rhetoric. Britain has had more PM than Italy governments the past few years..a JOKE.
As for debt...
According to the German institute Stiftung Markwirtschaft, in 2018, the aggregate explicit debt + implicit debt of Italy is 122%, lower than the German one at 170%.
Italy does not depend only on tourism,GUY (you definitely are one), it receives about the same amount of GDP from it as France, Spain, USA, China the only countries above it in amount of tourist so you would need to say they are dependent on tourism.
This is only part of what Italy's economy entails:
Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Fiat (most European Car of the Year Awards), Lancia, Pagani, Bugatti (founder Italian) and MORE. Ferrari, most powerful brand in the world and along with Alfa, Lancia, MOST world championships in their class.
Ducati...14 World Superbike FIM Titles, more than all other manufacturers COMBINED, Moto Guzzi, MV Agusta, Aprilia, Benelli, Piaggio(Vespa, most succesful scooter brand), Lambretta, Bimota and MANY MORE.

@starkr111 Enjoy GUY:
From Hitler’s own words:
“Others among the German leadership were less critical, most notably Adolf Hitler. In his address to the Reichstag following the conclusion of the Balkan Campaign, Hitler was complimentary to the Greeks for their "extremely brave resistance", but stated that given the Greek logistical situation, German involvement was not decisive in the Greco-Italian conflict: "The Duce... was convinced that a quick decision would be arrived at one way or another in the forthcoming season. I was of the same opinion." He stated that he had no quarrel with Greece (which he had acknowledged as part of the Italian sphere anyway) and that his intervention was aimed solely at the British as he suspected that they planned to set up a threat to his rear in the vein of the Salonika Front
of the First World War: "the German forces, therefore, represented no assistance to Italy against Greece, but a preventive measure against the British." He further noted that by the beginning of April the Albanian campaign against the Italians "had so weakened [Greece] that its collapse had already become inevitable", and credited the Italians with having "engaged the greater part of the Greek Army."
[251]
In his private correspondence in April 1942, Hitler said: "It is equally impossible to imagine what might have happened if the Italian front had not been stabilized in Albania, thanks to Mussolini; the whole of the Balkans would have been set alight at a moment when our advance towards the southeast was still in its early stages."
[252]

@starkr111 RUN, Germans, RUN:
"Not only should Tunisia have exploded the myth of Hitler's military acumen, it should have discredited the idea that Germans fought better than the Italians, since Messe's 1st Italian Army held out longer than Arnim's 5th German Army and the DAK, even both groups had about six divisions and faced roughly equal Anglo-American forces. Indeed, Hermann Goring division was the first to be scattered on 7 May, DAK the next to break and surrender on 9 May, with the Italian Spezia division closing the gap created by the German collapse and watching still combat-efficient German units march off into captivity on 11 May. Whether it is significant that the German 90th Light division was the first to collapse in Messe's 'Italian' Army, there is no doubt that the Italians fought well and held out longest in Tunisia." (The Second World War: The German War 1939-1942, Jeremy Black, Page 265, Ashgate, 2007)”

@zacha4812 WIKI: Italy is considered the birthplace of Western civilization and a cultural superpower. Italy has been the starting point of phenomena of international impact such as the Magna Graecia, the Roman Empire, the Roman Catholic Church, the Renaissance, the Risorgimento and the European integration. During its history, the nation gave birth to an enormous number of notable people. Both the internal and external faces of Western culture were born on the Italian peninsula, whether one looks at the history of the Christian faith, civil institutions (such as the Senate), philosophy, law, art, science, or social customs and culture. Italy was home to many well known and influential civilizations, including the Etruscans, Samnites and the Romans

“This revisionist history convincingly argues that the Regia Marina Italiana (the Royal Italian Navy) has been neglected and maligned in assessments of its contributions to the Axis effort in World War II. After all, Italy was the major Axis player in the Mediterranean, and it was the Italian navy and air force, with only sporadic help from their German ally, that stymied the British navy and air force for most of the thirty-nine months that Italy was a belligerent. It was the Royal Italian Navy that provided the many convoys that kept the Axis war effort in Africa alive by repeatedly braving attack by aircraft, submarine, and surface vessels. If doomed by its own technical weaknesses and Ultra (the top-secret British decoding device), the Italian navy still fought a tenacious and gallant war; and if it did not win that war, it avoided defeat for thirty-nine, long, frustrating months.” @grahamstrouse1165

@ramoncastaneda8432 "and Italy owes their existence to Africa, all nations do"
AHHHHHHAHAHA..cough*cough* can't catch my breath*AHHHHHHHAHAHA...WUT??
2000+ years later, Africa is still in 0 AD!!!...
Search YT videos for "What have the Romans ever done for us" and see what Brits say about who taught who.
"Britain’s Roman Legacy...
by Britain Magazine"
They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. By Penelope Rance
Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning – even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.

@ramoncastaneda8432 Atomic bomb was made possible by a coalition of people, countries...German scientist, Enrico Fermi called the father of.. creator of the world's first nuclear reactor, the Chicago Pile-1.Italian, and many others
Air plane- again drawings by DaVinci over 500 years ago
Radio..."These developments allowed Guglielmo Marconi to turn radio waves into a wireless communication system." Italian, & Tesla...
Submarines were first built by Dutch inventor Cornelius van Drebel in the early 17th century, but it was not until 150 years later that they were first used in naval combat.
Telephone-Antonio Meucci, an Italian immigrant, began developing the design of a talking telegraph or telephone in 1849. In 1871, he filed a caveat (an announcement of an invention) for his design of a talking telegraph. Due to hardships, Meucci could not renew his caveat. His role in the invention of the telephone was overlooked until the United States House of Representatives passed a Resolution on June 11, 2002,
On and on...getting the picture dude, many Italians are involved? Most everything you listed was invented or designed by Europeans, improved by Americans later, I'm not discounting America AT ALL, but don't tell me they were the first.
