義大利共和國
位於南歐,為全球第8大經濟體,人均GDP與台灣相近。自從2021年由「超級瑪利歐」德拉吉接任總理後,義大利的經濟快速復甦。信評機構也罕見上調了義大利的信用評級,歐盟更是批准超過千億歐元的復甦基金。然而俄烏戰爭也給了義大利一記重擊,先是俄羅斯無預警減少對義大利的天然氣輸送,接著又是大規模網路攻擊,在義大利內部可以看見大量的親俄羅斯言論。部分義大利民眾不諒解德拉吉持續向烏克蘭運送武器,並認為俄羅斯不需要為烏克蘭的傷亡負責。雪上加霜的是,義大利在2022年遇上70年來最嚴重的乾旱,同一時間北部阿爾卑斯山又雪崩,造成多人死亡。極端氣候、能源短缺、民粹主義和疑歐派的再次崛起,都在在考驗著義大利總理的領導能力。

Italy is a southern European country. Its capital city, Rome, is the cradle of European nations and cultures. Milan, another major Italian city, is also the second biggest metropolis in the EU and has been dubbed the fashion capital for half a century. The state is the eighth largest economy in the world with its GDP per capita close to that of Taiwan. As one of the founding nations of the EU, Italy is an active member of international organizations like the UN, NATO, and the G7, as well as the host country of the headquarters of many organizations that operate under the UN. There are three countries classified as enclaves in Italy. They are: the Holy See, San Marino, and the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. In the absence of a dominant political party in recent years, several political parties have formed a coalition government. It is also the first G7 state to sign onto China's Belt and Road Initiative.
