Italy's distinctive boot-shaped peninsula is divided into 20 administrative regions, each with its own government and character. This click-on-map geography quiz tests your ability to locate Italy's regions on the map, from the Alpine regions of Valle d'Aosta, Trentino-Alto Adige, and Friuli-Venezia Giulia in the north, to the major central regions of Tuscany, Lazio, and Umbria, to the sun-soaked southern regions of Campania, Calabria, Basilicata, and Puglia (the heel of the boot), and finally to the islands of Sicily and Sardinia. Italy's regions are strongly associated with food, wine, art, and cultural identity - Tuscany with its Renaissance art, Naples with its pizza, and Venice with its canals and gondolas.
Italy is divided into 20 regions: Valle d'Aosta, Piedmont, Liguria, Lombardy, Trentino-Alto Adige, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Veneto, Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany, Umbria, Marche, Lazio, Abruzzo, Molise, Campania, Basilicata, Puglia, Calabria, Sicily, and Sardinia. Five of these - Valle d'Aosta, Trentino-Alto Adige, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Sicily, and Sardinia - Have special autonomous status with greater powers than the other fifteen.
Northern Italy (the Po Valley and Alpine regions) is the country's industrial and economic heartland, containing cities like Milan, Turin, and Venice. Central Italy (Tuscany, Lazio, Umbria) is the historical and cultural core, home to Rome, Florence, and Siena. Southern Italy (the Mezzogiorno) - Including Campania, Calabria, Basilicata, Puglia, Sicily, and Sardinia - Has historically been less economically developed but is extraordinarily rich in ancient history and natural beauty.
