ITALY: (social studies entry).
In geography we are studying a lot of continents and islands, but the topic that I liked the was Italy. I think Italy is one of the nicest places in the world. I like Italy because it is not a gigantic place, like for example the Americas, but it is little and it has a lot of thimgs that other places don’t have. Itlay is famous for its history. In Rome, you can find pieces odf architecture that were lest from the Romans thousands and thousands of years ago. Then, in Italy the food is very good, we are famous for the pizza and for the pasta, but we cook everyething in a very good way. Then, in some places of Italy there is the sea (for example Grado, or Trieste), and some other places have the mountains (for example Trieste, or Cortina). Then, in Itlay there is not a lot of smog and pollution in paragon of other places. And lastly, here in Italy you have wonderful places were to travel and relax. Italy has everything you want to do, and it is a wonderful place, the best in the world!!.
