Veneto, Administrative region in northeastern Italy
The Veneto region extends from the Dolomite mountains to the Adriatic Sea, encompassing seven provinces across 18,391 square kilometers of diverse landscapes.
The region originated as part of the Roman Empire, later becoming the center of the Venetian Republic until Napoleon Bonaparte conquered it in 1797.
The territory maintains its local Venetian language alongside Italian, with specific communities speaking Ladin and Friulian in mountain and border areas.
The Metropolitan City of Venice serves as the regional capital, connecting to other major centers through a network of railways and the A4 motorway.
The region produces specific varieties of wine in designated zones, including Prosecco from the hills between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene.
