    From north to south Italiy shows a huge and rich history of different cultures and even different races. Just look at the last 1500 years of Italy



    So it's diverse country. Also its interesting its just one country. Italy could be in fact three states considering history, architecture, local culture etc
    1) Byzantine-Arab influenced south Italy and islands one country
    2) Birth of old Rome and surrounding with Papal influence another country in the center
    3) Lombard-Frank (Germanic) influenced north Italy third country

    Head of Moor means "victory over the Moors/Muslims", it's like in the Sardinian, Corsican and some Spanish flags.

    It's for celebrating the victory over them not for celebrating them.

    Esatto, se vogliamo sostenere che gli arabi abbiano inventato le stradine strette, i tombini e i vicoli, facciamolo pure, ma è veramente patetico. Le stradine strette si trovano anche nel centro medievale di Parigi, o in un qualsiasi centro medievale del nord Europa.

    Piuttosto è vero il contrario, sono arabi, saraceni, turchi e berberi che hanno spesso e volentieri imitato lo stile occidentale riadattandolo.

    Ma va là. E al massimo si tratta di influenza quindi, non di architettura araba. Ci sei mai stata in Arabia Saudita? Mi sa di no.

    no, ne ci andro mai

    non vo nei posti dove voglio che io sia velata o dove finanziano le distruzioni delle chiese

    nulla contro la loro architettura, che è stupenda però
    e nulla contro le poche persone non estreme di loro
