Italy can boast more than half of the world architectonical and artistic world heritage.


But most those things were not made by Italians.
Italians are boring and Italy has no natural wonders.
No wonder the nation is dying out...

Spain is much better, nature is awesome.

This is ridiculous! Have you ever been to the Alps or National parks in the Appenines with bears, wolves and lots of rare birds? What about the Beaufitul lakes in Lombardy: Not to mention Sicily, Sardinia or the lovely hills in Tuscany, please don't talk about thinks you don't know about!

The highest mount In Europe lies between Italy and France (Mont blanc) the highest Volcano the Etna is in Sicily, There are stunning beautiful islands all around Sicily, Tuscany and Sardinia. The guy above must be completely uneducated or stupid! In addition Italy is famous all around the world for its lovely sceneries.

According to an official questionnaire, the most attractive country that French people would long to live in is Italy, instead of Spain, southern US, or Latin America.

Italy is boring. And it's backward. I'm gay and the country is so homophobic and xenophobic. I enjoy Spain.

What about all these racist and xenophobic Spanish people keep on posting on this forum? Do they love gays and migrants?
ooops   Sun Sep 20, 2009 10:31 am GMT
Spain is not really more tolerant that Italy. Sure, Barcelona is pretty gay, but that's not really Spain anyway, if you catch my drift...

Milan is more gayfriendly than any other Spanish town! All fashion designers live there! You can find lots of gay bars and discos.

I'm not keen on gays at all.

The only people who like gays in Spain are Zapatero and his gay buddies.

"The highest mount In Europe lies between Italy and France (Mont blanc)"

Mont-Blanc is entirely French, in the middle of an ethnically French region (Savoy and Val d'Aoste)

Hasn't the Val D'Aosta been linguistically cleansed yet?

Mont Blanc or Monte Bianco (French and Italian, respectively, meaning white mountain) is the highest mountain in the Alps and in Western Europe.[1] It rises 4,810 m (15,781 ft) above sea level and is ranked 11th in the world in topographic prominence. It is also sometimes known as "La Dame Blanche" (French, the white lady).

The mountain lies between the regions of Aosta Valley, Italy, and Haute-Savoie, France. The location of the summit is on the French-Italian border but French cartographers place it within France's boundaries on maps. It is claimed by Italian sources that at a convention between France and the Kingdom of Sardinia, in Turin (1861), and in particular on the maps[2] joint to the convention, the border was fixed on the highest point of Mont Blanc, the south east ridge to Monte Bianco di Courmayeur wholly within Italy, and that this was the last official definition of this border.

The two most famous towns near Mont Blanc are Courmayeur, in Aosta Valley, Italy, and Chamonix, in Haute-Savoie, France — the site of the first Winter Olympics. A cable car ascends and crosses the mountain from Chamonix to Courmayeur.

Begun in 1957 and completed in 1965, the 11.6 km (7¼ mi) Mont Blanc Tunnel runs beneath the mountain between these two countries and is one of the major trans-Alpine transport routes.

The Mont Blanc Massif is popular for mountaineering, hiking, skiing and sno
