150 YEARS OF ITALY, A COUPLE MILLENNIA OF ROME


ITALIAN 
UNIFICATION 
CELEBRATED 



THE ROMAN FORUM 
Back In The Day 
(No, not that far back) 

For more of the story, and 
the Arch of Titus, see here 

Today, Italy celebrated 150 years of unification, with a parade and ceremony in Rome. Rome, of course, has been around rather longer; the Roman Forum is dated as far back as the 8th century B.C. 

Some photographs from today's events can be found here, and more photographs, with a bit of commentary, here.
