Does Italy really depend on Switzerland for up to 3/4 of its power ?

No, it depends on France's nuclear power plants.

Both teams haven't deserve great highlights in round of 16. If Ukraine plays as I've seen in the last match, I think they have no more than 15% chances to win. When Switzerland midfielders were running with the ball, UKR defender and defensive midfielders were moving slowly and unaggressive, giving control and initiative to opponents. It doesn't seem a tactical play, but a serious lack of skills. Switzerland wasn't an high-tempo team, and Ukraine hasn't got the chance to attack. Italy never shows in this tournament the great plays they can afford. They could play really better, have a lot af experience and skills. But against Ukraine fast break attacks are the whole they need. So my prevision is 4-0 with Luca Toni triple scoring.

I live in Italy and, believe it or not, it has had 57 government changes since WW2. I'm not kidding!\n\nIsn't that a kick in the head?\n\nYou should visit this site: http://www.OnlyInItaly.com. The name speaks for itself! Ciao!

Triple Alliance were made up of the countries of Italy, Germany and Austria-Hungary.  \nIt was orginally designed in 1879 as the Dual Alliance, made up of the countries of Germany and Austria-Hungary.  In 1882, Italy joined, thus the name Triple Alliance.\nwww.spartacus.school.net.co/uk/FWWtriple.htm\nThe Triple Entente was made up of Russia, Britain, and France.\nwww.spartacus.school.net.co/uk/Fwwentente.htm\nEach pact was made up of three countries.  No more, no less. Good luck.\n\nPS ALAYNA  When did you ever crack that book? j/c

Not at all.  I figure that a few more stars and she will have to come to grips with the fact that Italy rules and France pales in comparison when they still have 1.

This is because the UK and Italy and Germany are filthy rich greedy Western countries that avoid acting responsibly. They know about the mines, but they ignore them.\n\nThe above mentioned country's have coldhearted governments that don't care about Egyptians.\n\nEgypt must call on the International Community to FORCE those countries to send special teams to clean the filth they left on Egyptian Soveirgn Soil.\n\nBloody Arrogant Western Governments!\n\nHow would they feel if the tables were turned?\n\nThey're so bloody arrogant!

True.  I forget when Mussolini was toppled and Rome seized, but Italy switched sides.

Some of you may think this is a silly question, but it's really not. There is a trend, especially in Europe, for returning more power to states/provinces. Scotland now has its own government that decides most if not all of their domestic affairs. Catalonia in Spain wants independence. A few years ago Quebec came very close to leaving Canada. The fact of the matter is, culturally, the southern part of the U.S. is just really different then the northeast and western parts of the United States. Take a look of a map showing where the "red" states are and the "blue" states. See a trend? Just think about it; wouldn't a lot of you blue state folks be happier joining Canada in some great big socialist experiment?

Switzerland wouldn't be too bad, either. Talk shows and news reports can tend to exaggerate everything, but I think the US is heading downward, too. But hey, what goes down must come up! Ignorance isn't bliss! Knowledge holds the power to make changes...

I can see everyone is still arguing on here RO35. Lol\n\n@ Lava Man I will have you know there was no cheating done by the Italian team. My father knows people in very high places in Italy and Sicily and easily found out that there was none of that crap pulled. Sorry to have to tell you, but its the truth. How does he know?? He has connections with the Italian government. With that said I couldnt tell you about Portugal though.

Germany would be my guess as well.  Perhaps one of the small ones like Luxembourg or Belgium.
