Italy’s history encompasses a vast period from ancient civilizations to modern nationhood. Key periods include the rise of the Etruscans, the Roman Republic and Empire, the fragmentation of the peninsula after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, the Renaissance, and the unification into a single nation-state in the 19th century. Let’s start about 1000 years before Christ. The Italian peninsula is inhabited by Greeks in the south (including Sicily), Celts in the north and Etruscans in the centre. The Greeks brought some customs from ancient Greece and, to some extent, laid the foundation for what would become Roman culture a few hundred years later.
