The Italian peninsula or Apennine peninsula is one of the greatest peninsulas of Europe, spanning 1000 km from the Alps in the north, to the central Mediterranean Sea in the south. The peninsula is well-known for its boot shape.
Located in Southern Europe, it consists of three states:
- Italy, the mainland
- San Marino, which is an enclave of Italy in the NW
- Vatican City, which is an enclave in the Italian city of Rome
The name Apennine comes from the Apennine Mountains.cs:Apeninský poloostrov eo:Itala duoninsulo ko:이탈리아 반도 he:חצי האי האפניני it:penisola italiana nl:Apennijns Schiereiland ja:イタリア半島 pl:Półwysep Apeniński pt:Península Itálica ru:Апеннинский полуостров sk:Apeninský polostrov fi:Apenniinien niemimaa sv:Apenninska halvön zh:亚平宁半岛
