About Rome
Italy's capital and the seat of the Catholic church, in the centre of the peninsula. Government, religious travel and a permanent stream of tourists.
Population about 3,300,000 at the game's 2010 snapshot.
Rome is a leisure market: most of its traffic is going on holiday, which rewards big aircraft on fewer flights.
