Italy is mainly Roman Catholic, although there are Jewish and Protestant communities. Italy also has a growing number of Muslim immigrants. The official language of Italy is Italian and 93 percent of its citizens are native speakers. French is legally recognized in the Alpine region. In southern Italy, it is normal to have an extended family all living together, while in the northern region extended families are less common.
Families often provide financial support to each other. Children are named after saints and celebrate their saints day like its their own birthday. Bella Figura is a term used for how a person dresses, and the type of aura a person gives off. The way you dress and present yourself is very important in Italy. If an invitation says "casual wear" you should still wear nicer clothes, like business clothes in America.
