Catania
Catania is an Italian city that has more than 300,000 inhabitants.
The city was founded in 729 BC. from the Calcidesi of nearby Naxos. Catania boasts a thousand-year history characterized by various dominations whose remains enrich its artistic, architectural and cultural heritage. Under the Aragonese dynasty it was the capital of the Kingdom of Sicily, and since 1434 at the behest of King Alfonso V it is the seat of the oldest university on the island. In the course of its history it has been affected several times by volcanic eruptions (the most impressive, in historical times, is that of 1669) and by earthquakes (the most catastrophic mentioned were those of 1169 and 1693).
