Italy is a land of saints, poets, and sailors. This was as true in the 15th century, when Christopher Columbus sailed off, as it is today. Creativity and curiosity have always been distinguishing features of the Italian spirit and inspired countless works of art as well as adventurous journeys of discovery.
Starting with the ancient Roman Empire, our ancestors traveled not only within Europe and the Mediterranean but also to Asia and Africa, exploring new territories and establishing contacts with other civilizations. Besides ambition or necessity, they were driven by an undeniable fascination with the unknown.
