However, we doubt that people know that, for example the Italian language is one of the most studied language in the world; Italy is the second European industrial country, only after the much more populated Germany; that Italy, although is home of criminal organisations, has the lowest homicide rate in Europe, after only Luxemburg, the Italian private household wealth is one of the highest in Europe, four times bigger than its already big public debt. Incredibly, Italian people, together with other 9 countries, hold 73.5% of the world’s private wealth; Italy is one of the main net contributors of the EU budget; Italy has the highest number of UNESCO World Heritage sites (55); Italy, together with Spain, has the richest biodiversity in Europe, with 58,000 animal species, 6,700 species of higher plants, and the richest groups of mosses and lichens in Europe – which gives rise to one of the best ‘cuisines’ in the world.
