History Before the Roman conquest, the ancient ''Abellinum'' was a centre of the Samnite Hirpini, located on the Civita hill some outside the current town, in what is now Atripalda. The city could correspond to the ancient ''Velecha'', documented by coins found in the area. ''Abellinum'' was conquered by the Romans in 293 BC, changing name several times in the following centuries (''Veneria'', ''Livia'', ''Augusta'', ''Alexandriana'', and ''Abellinatium'').

Motion Of No Confidence
A motion of no confidence, also variously called a vote of no confidence, no-confidence motion, motion of confidence, or vote of confidence, is a statement or vote about whether a person in a position of responsibility like in government or management is still deemed fit to hold that position, such as because they are inadequate in some aspect, fail to carry out their obligations, or make decisions that other members feel to be detrimental. The parliamentary motion demonstrates to the head of government that the elected Parliament either has or no longer has confidence in one or more members of the appointed government. In some countries, a no-confidence motion being passed against an individual minister requires the minister to resign.
