Rome

Rome is the capital of Italy as well as the countary's largest and most populous city.

History
In 1754, celebrated broom fliers Silvio Astolfi, of Italy, and Torquil McTavish, of Scotland, agreed to hold a race from Aberdeen to Rome. Fans of both racers gathered at the Colosseum, where the finishing line was located, and a fight broke out between them. During the scuffle, an explosion was somehow set off, leaving the Colosseum in ruins. Thanks to Orabella Nuttley, who stepped forward to repair a few columns with the Mending Charm she had invented, the damage to the ancient amphitheatre was undone by the time that Rome's Muggle citizens arrived on the scene.
