Venice
City (pop.,2001 prelim.:266,181),capital of Veneto region,northern Italy.
Built on the lagoon of Venice,it encompasses some 118 islands,the whole 90-mi (145-km) perimeter of the lagoon,and two industrial mainland boroughs.Refugees from northern invasions of the mainland founded settlements in the 5th century AD that were built uniquely on islands as protection against raids.Venice was a vassal of the Byzantine Empire until the 10th century.Beginning with control of a trading route to the Levant,it emerged from the Fourth Crusade (1202–04) as ruler of a colonial empire which included Crete,Euboea,Cyclades,the Ionian Islands,and footholds in Morea and Epirus.In 1381 it defeated Genoa after a century-long struggle for commercial supremacy in the Levant and eastern Mediterranean.In the 15th century,with the acquisition of neighbouring regions,the Venetian Republic became an extensive Italian state.It gradually lost its eastern possessions to Ottoman Turks,with whom Venice fought intermittently from the 15th to the 18th century; it gave up its last hold in the Aegean in 1715.The republic dissolved and the territory was ceded to Austria in 1797.Incorporated into Napoleon's kingdom of Italy in 1805,it was restored to Austria in 1815.A revolt against Austria (1848–49) eventually resulted in Venice being ceded to Italy in 1866.It suffered little damage during World War II,but flooding along its many miles of canals caused severe damage in 1966.The waters of the lagoon rise and flood the city on a regular basis,complicating efforts to preserve its architecture,which includes representations of Italian,Arabic,Byzantine,and Renaissance styles.There are some 450 palaces and homes of major historic importance in Venice.Notable among its 400 bridges is the Bridge of Sighs (built с 800) and among its churches is St.Mark's Basilica.Most of the city's workers find employment in tourism and related industries,though the city also plays a key market role within the vibrant economic system of the Veneto region.
