  ITALY
  

• 3 слайд

  The official name of the country is Italy. It is situated in Southern Europe. It consists of the Italian Peninsula and the two Mediterranean islands of Sicily and Sardinia, in addition to many smaller islands. It is washed by the Mediterranean Sea, Adriatic Sea, Ionian Sea, Tyrrhenian Sea, Ligurian Sea, Sea of Sardinia and Strait of Sicily. Almost 40% of the Italian territory is mountainous, with the Alps as the northern boundary and the Apennine Mountains forming the backbone of the peninsula and extending for 1,350 km (840 mi). In between the two lies a large plain in the valley of the Po, the largest river in Italy.

  Many elements of the Italian territory are
  of volcanic origin.
  Most of the small islands and archipelagos
  in the south, like Capraia, Ponza, Ischia,
  Eolie, Ustica and Pantelleria are
  volcanic islands.
  There are also active volcanoes:
  Etna, in Sicily, the largest active volcano in Europe;
  Vulcano, Stromboli, and Vesuvius,
  near Naples, the only active volcano
  on mainland Europe.
