Taranto
A port city in the northern part of the Gulf of Taranto in Puglia, southern Italy. After the unification of Italy, a naval base was built and the city saw rapid population growth and urbanization. In 1940 during World War II, the city was bombed by British forces. Since 1960, it has become an important base for the southern industrialization policy, attracting heavy industries such as steelworks, and air and marine pollution has become a problem. It was once the most important Greek colony in southern Italy, and was conquered by Rome in the 3rd century BC and called Tarentum. There is an 11th century cathedral. It has a population of 200,154 (2011).
