How did it italy get there nick name?

Question

the nick name rebublicka italina

Answer 1

I partly correct previous answer.

It's correct to say "repubblica Italiana" is not a nickname but

I disagree that "the boot" (lo stivale) is the only one nickname Italy has. Italy is also known as "il bel Paese"  (the beautiful Country) !!

Answer 2

Ok..Martox, we must stop meeting like this, I'm always a step behind you:).  But I definitely agree with your answer, thumbs up to you.  And thanks also for correcting the spelling.

Answer 3

Is a republic....as we havent got a king or queen....and the right spelling is Repubblica...and not Italina but Italiana.....

by the way the letter K doesn t exist in italian alphabet

Answer 4

You mean "Republica Italiana"?   That's just the Italian translation of "Italian Republic".  Very simple.  :-))

The only nickname of Italy  that I know is:  "the boot", because of it's shape.

And indeed, Italy is a very beautiful country!

Answer 5

Too many words....I think that "BELLA ITALIA" it's enough.

Answer 6

Belpaese "Beautiful country" or sometimes people don't like Italy "Banana republic".
