You Bet Your Meatballs I'm Italian Shirt

About This Shirt

You bet your meatballs I'm Italian! I'm proud to trace my heritage to the most famous empire of all that sparked expansion across Europe. The toast of the Mediterranean, the fertile land that spawned the birth of Western civilization, and the country with a rich history all culminate to create a rich Italian pride. Well-known events, places, and people such as Julius Caesar, Romulus and Remus, Jupiter, Nero fiddling as Rome burned, Boccacio in his tower penning "The Decameron" as the Black Death ravaged Europe, Hannibal and his elephants marching to battle during the Second Punic War, the hellish fury that spewed from Mount Vesuvius and destroyed Pompeii and Herculaneum, the brilliant rule of Charlemagne, Virgil, Horace, Ovid, Livy, Pax Romana, Leonardo da Vinci birthing brilliant ideas in the realms of science and high art, Michelangelo painting the divinity of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican City, Donatello, Botticelli, Dante's "Divine Comedy" and Petrarch's masterful creation of the sonnet both transformed modern literature, and let's not forget delicious items such as gnocchi, lasagna, tiramisu, bruschetta, focaccia, pizza margherita, calzones, macaroni, ravioli, fettucini, ziti, rigatoni, vermicelli, carbonara, and pancetta. There are so many reasons to be proud of your Italian heritage, so get loud and get proud with this great custom design from Strange Cargo!
