In so many places, the two political and geographical entities collide. They wouldn't be possible without each other, but they each have their own story. Rome's history is only a small fragment of Italy's history. Although it is just a city, Rome was the birthplace of the republic, a great empire, and notable philosophers, poets, and artists. But on a larger scale, Rome expanded its borders, spreading not only through Italy but also through the whole known world. In that context, Rome ceased being only a city; it also became a universal imperial symbol and the pride of Italy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eItaly wasn't a united nation until the 19th century, which means the history of this country is very fragmented. It is the job of historians, archaeologists, anthropologists, linguists, and various scientists to pick up the pieces of the peninsula's past and put them together. Only then will we have a clear picture, a mosaic if you will, of the past of one of the most significant nations of Europe and the world. And after it is pieced together, we need to deconstruct the mosaic and take a look at each fragment to learn about the different peoples, cultures, and religions that were and still are a part of Italy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome of the topics covered in part 1 of this book include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bronze Age in Italy and the Early Settlements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIron Age and Pre-Roman Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItaly in the Roman Period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarbarian and Byzantine Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Kingdom of the Lombards and the Emergence of the Papal States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItaly's Place in the Holy Roman Empire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItaly's Renaissance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Modern History of Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much, much more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome of the topics covered in part 2 of this book include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Founding of Rome: Myth and Reality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Kingdom of Rome\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Roman Republic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocial Wars and the End of the Roman Republic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePax Romana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Third and Early Fourth Centuries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Fall of the West; The East Thrives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRome in the Middle Ages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Renaissance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModern History of Rome\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much, much more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSo if you want to learn more about the history of Italy and Rome, scroll up and click the \"add to cart\" button!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Captivating History\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Captivating History\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/08\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.73d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781637160442","brand":"Captivating History","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45606453149833,"sku":"9781637160442","price":19.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_8967d2af-9c8c-4dd9-ae18-19aec0b9012e.jpg?v=1776752090","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/italian-history-a-captivating-guide-to-the-history-of-italy-and-rome-9781637160442","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
