Italy
Italy, officially the Italian Republic, is a country located on the Italian Peninsula in southern and western Europe. The Italian Peninsula stretches from the middle of the Mediterranean Sea to the Alps on its northern land border. Italy is known for his delicious foods like pizza 🍕 and pasta 🍝.
Due to his large economy, and great range of allies, Italyball has been able to join many international organisationballs. For instance, the nation has benefited massively from being in the 
European Union and 
NATO, along with being a part of the 
Union for the Mediterranean, 
OECD, and like every sovereign country, they have joined the 
United Nations.
Storia (History)[edit | edit source]
After WWII ended, Italy became a republic by popular referendum. He started rebuilding his economy and industry based on loans from the Marshall Plan. He narrowly avoided a 
socialist victory in the elections and became affiliated with 
USA and NATO against 
Soviet Union. He was forced to give up all his colonies to 
United Kingdom, 
France, and 
Ethiopia except for 
Italian Somaliland. He also had to pay reparations and was prohibited from owning heavy-duty military machines for some time.
In 1951, Italy was invited to join 
ECSC, which developed into 
European Economic Community in 1956 and 1957 via the Treaty of 
Rome with 
France, 
West Germany, and the 
Low Countries. In 1960, Italy gave 
Somalia his independence; then, he allowed USA to place strategic missiles on his clay during the Cold War (the Jupiter Missiles). Those were removed following the 
Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. He also got rid of 
Mafia activities in the 1970s. Unfortunately, the late 1960s began a bad time for Italy. The years of lead were a 
terroristic period in which many people died by mortal attempts.
Italy developed a modern economy in the 1970s and 1980s, producing luxury brands like 
Ferrari. He joined 
European Union in 1993 as a founding member of European Economic Community after the 
Maastricht Treaty. It partakes in only some coalitions to keep peace in the Middle East under NATO. He is a 
G20 and 
G7 member and the third most-developed EU member. Italy now produces luxury sunglasses and good food and patrols the southern coast to look for 
African and 
Middle Eastern refugees.
