Italy

Italy, or the Italian Republic, with Rome as its capital, is situated in southern Europe and consists of the major islands of Sardinia and Sicily. Italy occupies a slightly larger area than the Arizona state. The Italian mainland is boot-shaped. It is bordered by Austria and Switzerland on the north and Slovenia in the northeast. On the other hand, it is bordered by the Ionian and Adriatic Sea on the east and by Ligurian and Tyrrhenian Sea on the west. It is also bordered by France on the northwest.

With a population of sixty million people, Italy has diverse groups of people. It has been the home of Goths and Lombards in the north, Spaniards, Saracens and Greeks in and around Rome and Sicily, along with the Etruscans in central Italy.

It is officially operated with the authorities of Italy, but it hosts at least forty United States activities. It is located close to Catania, on the island of Sicily.

The NSA Gaeta Base is located in Gaeta, Italy. This base, although, is operated by the United States Army, it is also under the regulations of the government of Italy.

The main purpose of this base is to support CNE/COMSIXTHFLT and COMDESRON SIX ZERO units. Also, it needs to provide a safe environment and proper lifestyle to the people living in the base. Last but not the least, it is connected with NATO too.
