Artistically, Rome underwent a period of great rebirth during the Renaissance and the Baroque periods, but politically it freed itself from the domination of the temporal power only in 1871, when it became capital of Italy. The event that marked the rebellion against the popes is known as breach of Porta Pia, and was leaded by the national hero Giuseppe Garibaldi.

Rome est située dans la région du Latium, au centre de l'Italie, à la confluence de l'Aniene et du Tibre. Le centre-ville est situé à environ 24 kilomètres de la côte de la mer Tyrrhénienne, mais le territoire municipal s'étend jusqu'à celle-ci, notamment au niveau d'Ostie. L'altitude varie de 13 mètres au dessus du niveau de la mer (sur la Piazza del Popolo) à 120 mètres.
