Transcript of Sicilia

Sicily (Italian and Sicilian: Sicilia) is an autonomous region of Italy in Europe. Of all the regions of Italy, Sicily

covers the largest surface area with 25,708 km²and currently has five million inhabitants. It is also the largest

island in the Mediterranean Sea, though several much smaller islands surrounding it are also considered part of

Sicily.

Throughout much of its history, Sicily has been considered a

crucial strategic location due in large part to its importance for

Mediterranean trade routes. The area was highly regarded as part

of Magna Graecia, with Cicero describing Siracusa as the

greatest and most beautiful city of all Ancient Greece.
