Sassuolo
Italy, officially the Italian Republic or Repubblica Italiana, is a Southern European country comprising of the Po River valley, the Italian Peninsula and the two largest islands in the Mediterranean Sea, Sicily and Sardinia. It is shaped like a boot and for this reason Italians commonly call it lo Stivale, the boot or, due to its prevalent peninsular geographical nature, la Penisola, the Peninsula.
Inhabitants of Italy are referred to as Italians. Their official language is Standard Italian, descendant of Tuscan dialect and a direct descendant of Latin. The word Italy is derived from the Homeric Aeolic word which means bull. Italy is subject to highly diverse weather conditions in autumn, winter, and spring. The country has the fifth-highest population density in Europe at 193 persons per square kilometer. Today, despite regional variations in the form of accents and vowel emphasis, Italian is fully comprehensible to most throughout the country.
Sassuolo is an industrial town west of Modena and North West of Bologna in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. The town's wealth derives from being the centre of the Italian tile industry for many decades. Cheaper tiles first from Spain and then from China have economically damaged the town, leaving an unclear role for it in the future. It has an elevation of 121 meters and total area of 38 square kilometers and a population of 41,746 and density 979 square kilometers.
A city known for its historic myths and traditions, scenic beauty, cooperative people and luxurious hotels and cottages, Sassuolo is one of the favorite holiday destinations for most of the vacation lovers.
