    Italy has a population of 61 million people and uses the euro as its currency. The president is the head of state with ceremonial powers like dissolving parliament and calling elections, while the prime minister is the head of government. Important events in Italian history include the Clean Hands anti-corruption operation in the 1990s, a referendum establishing a republic in 1946 after being a monarchy, and the kidnapping and killing of a former prime minister by leftist terrorists in 1978. Ancient Rome dominated the Italian peninsula beginning in the 8th century BC and established the foundations of western civilization.
