Italy, a Country of south-central Europe, occupies a peninsula that juts deep into the Mediterranean Sea. Italy comprises some of the most varied and scenic landscapes on Earth and is often described as a country shaped like a boot. Its capital, Rome, is home to the Vatican as well as landmark art and ancient ruins. Other major cities include Florence, with Renaissance masterpieces such as Michelangelo’s "David" and Brunelleschi's Duomo; Venice, the city of canals; and Milan, Italy’s fashion capital.

Economy

Italy economic freedom score is 64.9, making its economy the 68th freest in the 2021 Index. Its overall score has increased by 1.1 points, primarily because of an improvement in judicial effectiveness. Italy is ranked 36th among 45 countries in the European region, and its overall score is below the regional average but above the world average. The Italian economy has been in the moderately free category in most years since the inception of the Index in 1995, dragged down by one consistently very low-scoring indicator: government spending. The vast majority of that spending consists of politically motivated funding of programs that do little to increase the overall performance of the country’s economy.
