- This name is given to the northwestern part of Italy, a triangle with its points in the cities of Milan, Turin and Genoa, where the development of modern industry began at the end of the 19th century. It was the major Italian production centre and led to mass internal immigration from the south, especially between the 1950s and 1970s. The subsequent decline of large industry, which principally affected Turin and Genoa, has transformed the “Industrial triangle” into a northwest where small and medium-sized industries and the service sector now predominate. Other models for strong development have emerged, particularly in the Veneto.

- The Liberation was the conclusive moment of World War II in Italy, at the end of April in 1945, when the forces of the Resistance rose up in the big northern cities (Turin, Milan, Genoa), leading to the surrender and retreat of the German troops before the arrival of the victorious Anglo-American forces. It is commemorated with the Festa della Liberazione, on the 25th April every year.

- The lottery appeared in Italy in Genoa in the 16th century, and spread to the different Italian states in the course of the following century. It has been controlled directly by the State since the 18th century, with weekly draws on Saturdays in 10 cities (ruote or lottery drums) since 1871. Over the centuries the practice of interpreting dreams in order to select lottery numbers has become popular and this mixture of mysticism and cabalism is encapsulated in the book Smorfia (from the name of Morpheus). The old game still shows huge potential for further development, such as the recent, very popular Superenalotto.
