     Due to its seaside location the city adheres to maritime traditions. It served as the vibrant trading center through the hands of the Etruscans, the Greeks and the Carthaginians in the early years. The trouble came with the fall of the Roman Empire when the city declined to a backwater port. Even though pirates often attacked the city, Genoa recovered to become the most important port in the Mediterranean. This success attracted foreigners and the French established rule in the area until it was captured by Austria in 1746. In 1861 Genoa was annexed to Italy.

     With regards to its maritime past, Genoa, is full of sailors even though the city has already lost its tough character to become an appealing destination on the Italian Riviera. It was the 2004 European Culture Capital as it had poured enough money into cultural revitalization. The wealth of churches and museums places the city among the world's leading destinations, while its Rolli Palaces tops the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
