Sardinia
is the second island in the Mediterranean sea
for extension. Because of its geographic position in the middle
of the Mediterranean sea and its resources, especially the mining
resources, Sardinia has always represented the colonizers' destination.
Sardinia is a very ancient island rich in history
and legends and everywhere there are traces of human settlements dated
from the Neolithic Age. The climate allows to have a very long summer
season, from April to November. Sardinia is politically divided into 4 provinces: ¬ Cagliari (CA) ¬ Nuoro (NU) ¬ Oristano (OR) ¬ Sassari (SS) There are numerous geographical areas which are characterized by different territories such as Campidano, Sulcis, Iglesiente, Barbagie, Baronie, Logudoro, Gallura and many others. This is the reason that led to develop a wide range of uses, traditions and local dialects. |
