Municipi Of Rome
The city of Rome, Italy is divided into first-level administrative subdivisions. There are 15 ''municipi'' (singular: ''municipio'') in the city; each ''municipio'' is governed by a president and a council who are elected directly by its residents every five years. The ''municipi'' collectively comprise the comune of Rome, which is itself one of the constituent parts of the wider metropolitan city of Rome Capital. History On 31 March 1966, for administrative purposes and to increase decentralization, the territory of the ''comune'' of Rome was divided into 12 administrative areas, called ''circoscrizioni'' (singular: ''circoscrizione''). On 11 February 1972 those areas were increased to 20. On 6 March 1992, after the referendum that ratified the separation of the then ''Circoscrizione XIV'' from Rome and the birth of the new independent ''comune'' of Fiumicino, the number of administrative areas of Rome decreased to 19. On 19 January 2001, ''circoscrizioni'' which were renamed ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Augustus
Caesar Augustus (born Gaius Octavius; 23 September 63 BC – 19 August AD 14), also known as Octavian, was the first Roman emperor; he reigned from 27 BC until his death in AD 14. He is known for being the founder of the Roman Principate, which is the first phase of the Roman Empire, and Augustus is considered one of the greatest leaders in human history. The reign of Augustus initiated an imperial cult as well as an era associated with imperial peace, the ''Pax Romana'' or ''Pax Augusta''. The Roman world was largely free from large-scale conflict for more than two centuries despite continuous wars of imperial expansion on the empire's frontiers and the year-long civil war known as the "Year of the Four Emperors" over the imperial succession. Originally named Gaius Octavius, he was born into an old and wealthy equestrian branch of the plebeian ''gens'' Octavia. His maternal great-uncle Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC, and Octavius was named in Caesar' ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Quartiere
A (; plural: ) is a territorial subdivision of certain Italian towns. The word derives from (‘fourth’) and was thus properly used only for towns divided into four neighborhoods by the two main roads. It has been later used as a synonymous of neighbourhood, and an Italian town can be now subdivided into a larger number of ''quartieri''.

Circoscrizione
''Circoscrizione'' (; plural: ''circoscrizioni'') can refer to two different administrative units of Italy. One is an electoral district approximating to the English ''constituency'' but typically the size of a province or region, depending on the election. The other is a subdivision of city ''comuni'' roughly equivalent to the municipal arrondissements of Paris or the London boroughs. Electoral district For Senate elections, there are 20 ''circoscrizioni'' corresponding to the regions of Italy. For elections to the Chamber of Deputies, some of the regions are split in two, and Lombardy in three, to make 26 ''circoscrizioni''. For elections to the European Parliament, Italy is split into 5 ''circoscrizioni'', typically of 4–5 regions joined. Until the electoral reforms in 2005, ''circoscrizioni'' for national elections were divided into ''collegi uninominali'' which elected one deputy or Senator and thus were directly equivalent to a constituency in the British sense.

Frazione
A ''frazione'' (plural: ) is a type of subdivision of a ''comune'' (municipality) in Italy, often a small village or hamlet outside the main town. Most ''frazioni'' were created during the Fascist era (1922–1943) as a way to consolidate territorial subdivisions in the country. In the autonomous region of the Aosta Valley, a ''frazione'' is officially called an ''hameau'' in French. Description Typically the term ''frazioni'' applies to the villages surrounding the main town (''capoluogo'') of a ''comune''. Subdivision of a ''comune'' is optional; some ''comuni'' have no ''frazioni'', but others have several dozen. The ''comune'' usually has the same name of the ''capoluogo'', but not always, in which case it is called a ''comune sparso''. In practice, most ''frazioni'' are small villages or hamlets, occasionally just a clump of houses. Not every hamlet is classified as a ''frazione''; those that are not are often referred to as ''località'', for example, in the telephone boo ...

Località
A ''località'' is an inhabited place in Italy that is not accorded a more significant distinction in administrative law such as a ''frazione'', ''comune'', ''municipio'', ''circoscrizione'', or ''quartiere''. The word is cognate to English ''locality''. The Italian National Institute of Statistics defines ''località abitata'' (inhabited locality) as an "area of more or less size, normally known by its own name, on which are situated either grouped or scattered houses." Three types of inhabited locality are distinguished: *''centro abitato'' – a group of houses with roads, squares or other small gaps between them, and public services or establishments where residents congregate for religious, educational or business purposes or for obtaining provisions *''nucleo abitato'' – a group of houses with at least five households, but without the type of place where residents gather, as in a ''centro abitato'' *''case sparse'' – houses spread over the countryside or along roads wi ...

Rioni Of Rome
A rione of Rome (, pl. ''rioni'') is a traditional administrative division of the city of Rome. "Rione" is an Italian term used since the 14th century to name a district of a town. The term was born in Rome, originating from the administrative divisions of the city. The word comes from the Latin word ''regio'' (pl. ''regiones'', meaning region); during the Middle Ages the Latin word became ''rejones'', from which ''rione'' comes. Currently, all the rioni are located in Municipio I of Rome. Ancient Rome According to tradition, Servius Tullius, sixth king of Rome, first divided the city into ''regiones'', numbering four. During administrative reorganization after the Roman Republic collapsed, the first emperor Augustus created the 14 ''regiones'' of Rome that were to remain in effect throughout the Imperial era, as attested by the 4th-century ''Cataloghi regionari'', that name them and provide data for each. All but ''Transtiberim'' (the modern Trastevere) were on the left bank o ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Sestiere
A (plural: ) is a subdivision of certain Italian towns and cities. The word is from (‘sixth’), so it is thus used only for towns divided into six districts. The best-known example is the ''sestieri'' of Venice, but Ascoli Piceno, Genoa, Milan and Rapallo, for example, were also divided into ''sestieri''. The medieval Lordship of Negroponte, on the island of Euboea, was also at times divided into six districts, each with a separate ruler, through the arbitration of Venice, which were known as ''sestieri''. The island of Crete, a Venetian colony (the "Kingdom of Candia") from the Fourth Crusade, was also divided into six parts, named after the ''sestieri'' of Venice herself, while the capital Candia retained the status of a ''comune'' of Venice. The island of Burano north of Venice is also subdivided into ''sestieri''. A variation of the word is occasionally found: the ''comune'' of Leonessa, for example, is divided into or sixths. Other Italian towns with fewer than six ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
