  • Fun Facts: Cappuccino (the coffee drink) is named after the Capuchin order of monks in Rome. The monks were known by their custom of wearing a hood or cappuccino with their habits. Rome was the most populous city in Europe until the 1800s when London's population exceeded that of Rome. Rome's "La Sapienza" is the largest university in Europe, it was established in A.D.1303. St.Peter's Basilica is the world's largest Basilica of Christianity. The Basilica displays works by Italy's great artists Raphael, Michelangelo, and Maderno. This church was rebuilt in the 15th and 16th centuries after its thoU.S.A.nd year old structure collapsed. The Basilica's dome was designed by Michelangelo and the square layout and much of the interior furnishing were designed by Bernini. The current basilica stands upon the spot where Saint Peter was martyred, at the heart of Vatican City (a completely independent state within Rome's city limits). Rome is home to the National Pasta Museum (Museo Nazionale delle Paste alimentari) which celebrates the production and evolution of Italian pasta. Italians were the first to create a dried pasta that allowed it to be stored indefinitely and shipped worldwide.
