Population

The majority are Italian-speaking Italians (94% of the total population). In addition, the national area in the north includes the predominantly German-speaking area of ​​South Tyrol (320,000 people; in addition about 6,000 in isolated groups in the rest of the Italian Alpine region), a French-speaking minority in the Aosta Valley and Piedmont, the Rhaeto-Romanic-speaking Ladins (30,000), in Friuli In addition to the Friulians (around 527,000), who have a special linguistic position, there are also Slovene- (85,000) and Croatian-speaking parts of the people (2,400).

Isolated groups of Albanians (around 100,000) and Greeks (12,000) also live in southern Italy and Sicily. In Sardinia, in addition to Sardinian (1.27 million speakers), a separate Romance language, Catalan is also spoken (20,000 speakers). The settlement density is (2017) 206 residents per km ². However, the population distribution is very different; the greatest density is found in parts of northern Italy (Lombardy, Liguria, Veneto), further density centers are around Rome and on the Gulf of Naples.

These metropolitan areas contrast with extremely sparsely populated areas (Basilicata, Sardinia, the mountain regions in the north). The urban population is 69% (2017); Around 20% of the population live in metropolitan areas with 1 million residents and more.

Internal migration from south to north (especially to the industrial triangle Milan – Turin – Genoa), from the mountainous areas to the coastal plains and from the countryside to the cities, which causes growing social tensions in the industrial conurbations, is very strong.

The seasonal migration of workers, especially unemployed southern Italians to France, Switzerland and Germany, is also of importance.

Among the rural settlements, villages in closed construction with often large boundaries determine the picture. The settlements in central and southern Italy are often (in a protective position) on mountains; Because of this unfavorable situation under the current conditions, characteristic new settlements arise in deep areas, such as the “Marina” places on the coasts, for example. B. Calabria. Individual settlements can be found widespread in the area of ​​the Alps, in the Po Valley and in connection with the now expiring half-lease (Mezzadria) in central Italy, further in Campania and Apulia also as hamlet settlements.

In Italy (2017) there are 5.04 million foreigners (8.33% of the total population), 30.2% of them from other EU countries, 21.7% from Central and Eastern Europe, 20.6% from Africa, 19, 7% from Asia and 7.8% from other regions. Added to this is the number of illegal immigrants, which including boat refugees from North Africa (2017) was 354 700. With the change of government in 2018, Italy refused to accept the boat refugees with increasing frequency.

Religion

The constitution (Article 19) guarantees religious freedom and formulates (Article 8) the legal equality of religious communities as an essential constitutional principle. Relations between the state and the Catholic Church as the largest religious community were established by the 1984 Concordat, which included the Lateran Treaties replaced, redefined. Since then, the Catholic religion is no longer the state religion. In place of the financial compensation previously paid by the state for the maintenance of the clergy, the church was self-financed through tax-privileged donations amounting to 8 ‰ of wage or income tax. Religious instruction in public schools is optional and is offered as denominational Catholic religious instruction; the religion teachers are state employees (since 2003). State-church relationships with other religious communities are based on the state treaties concluded between them (as legal entities) and the state. Check watchtutorials to see The Best of Italy.

According to the latest available surveys, around 71% of citizens profess the Catholic Church (including members of the Italo-Albanian Church), other Christian denominations and other religious groups together make up less than 5%. It is estimated that around 24% have no religious affiliation. – Between about 0.6 and 1.3% belong to Protestant churches and communities. The Waldensians, Methodists (forming a church with the Waldensians since 1979), Lutherans and Baptists work together in the Federation of Evangelical Churches in Italy (“Federazione delle Chiese Evangeliche in Italia”). The religious community of Orthodox Christians is composed predominantly of immigrants of Southeast European origin. Their number is estimated at around 2.5% of the total population. The largest religious community with reference to Christianity are the Jehovah’s Witnesses.

The largest non-Christian religious community is represented by the Muslims, whose number is difficult to determine due to the often illegal migration (especially from North Africa) (estimates range up to over 2.6% of all people living in Italy). In 1995 a mosque was opened in Rome. About 0.12% of the population who practice Buddhism or are interested in it maintain connections with the more than 30 centers united in the Buddhist Union of Italy. The Jewish community has about 0.05% of the population. The largest of the more than 20 individual communities are located in Rome (also the oldest Jewish community in Europe) and Milan.
