Italy, officially the Italian Republic, is a country located partly on the European Continent and partly on the Italian Peninsula in Southern Europe and on the two largest islands in the Mediterranean Sea, Sicily and Sardinia. Italy shares its northern, Alpine boundary with France, Switzerland, Austria and Slovenia. The independent states of San Marino and the Vatican City are enclaves within the Italian Peninsula, and Campione d'Italia is an Italian exclave in Switzerland. The territory of Italy covers 301,338 km² and is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. With 60.2 million inhabitants, it is the sixth most populous country in Europe, and the twenty-third most populous in the world.
Italy is one of the member states of Interpol.
Heritage of a clown[]
Moe, the Berry Big Circus clown, claims to have some Italian heritage that he is reminded of whenever he sees his own nose. This is apparently a sore topic for the man, as could be seen when a joke by Maya Fey about his "Roman Nose" "[r]oamin' all over [his] face" didn't go down very well.[1].
Bellissima[]
In the French localization of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations, the effeminate French chef Jean Armstrong was changed to an effeminate Italian chef called Luigi Labocca. The name of his restaurant was also changed from Trés Bien to Bellissima.
An angry old bag[]
In the Brazilian fan-localization of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Wendy Oldbag's name is "Savéria Ranzina". Her given name in that language is of Italian heritage; whilst her last name is a play on "Ranzini", a common Italian surname. Her full name sounds like "essa velha ranzinza" (lit. "this grumpy old woman"); a reference to her poor temperament.
