About Palermo
Palermo is the main city of the autonomous region of Sicily in Italy. It dates back to ancient times, founded by Phoenician merchants in the 8th c. B.C. on the island's north-western coast and named Ziz. The Greek called it Panormus, meaning "harbour". The Phonicians controlled it until the First Punic War (246-241 B.C.), then Sicily came under Roman rule. With the split of the Roman Empire, it became part of Byzantine territory. The Saracens arrived in the 9th century and made Palermo a leading commercial and cultural center. It is said to have had 300 mosques! The Arab rule was a period of peace and tolerance: Christians and Jews were not persecuted. The Normans conquered the island in 1091, and a century later it fell under the rule of the Holy Roman Empire. In the late 13th century Sicily came under the Aragonese kings, and in the late 15th c. became part of the Spanish Kingdom. In 1734 it unified with the kingdom of Naples and lost some of its significance. In 1860 Sicily was annexed to the Kingdom of Italy and Palermo flourished as the island's administrative center. World War II brought an Allied invasion and heavy damage, and the post-war years were marked by the power of the Mafia which continues to be an issue today. Palermo has a lot of illegal immigrants from Africa.
