Cicero defined it "very flourishing"
and from the very times when it became a Roman colony in 183 B.C., Modena,
or better to say, Mutina, was at the core of important economic and cultural
events - as well as political and structural ones - that marked not only
a province of the Emilia region that - for those coming from Rome - lay
beyond the inaccesible Apennines, but also marked Italy as a whole.
