What does fecit Taurini anno domini 1840 mean?
I think it means "He made it in Turin in the year (of our Lord) 1840". "He" will probably be the artist or other kind of maker depending on context.

What were Piedmonts used for in ancient Rome?
Piedmont is a region in northwest corner of Italy by the French Alps on its western border and the Swiss Alps on its northern border. Its southern border is the Apennine Mountains which separate it from Liguria, and on its east there is Lombardy. Its capital is Turin. It consists mainly of the eastern and southern slopes of the Alps which reach into the plain of the river Po. It derives its name from the southern French for 'at the foot of the hill.' Therefore, the name can be used to mean a slope leading from the base of mountains to a region of flat land or an elevated geographical formation. In pre-Roman times Piedmont was inhabited by Celtic-Ligurian peoples such as the Taurini and Salassi. The Romans occupied it in 220 BC and founded the colonies of Augusta Tautrini (Turin) and Eporedia (Ivrea). Piedmont is also the name of a plateau region in the eastern US from New Jersey to central Alabama between the Appalachian Mountains and the Atlantic coastal pain.
What were the 3 ethnic groups that formed the population of Italy during roman time?
I do not know where you got the idea that there were only three ethnic groups In Italy in the days of the Romans. There were more than twenty-six peoples living in mainland Italy when Rome was a newcomer. In central and southern Italy was the Osco-Umbrian linguistic group which included the Umbrians, Piceni, Sabines, Marsi, Marucini, Frentani, Vestini, Samnites, Campanians and Lucanians. The Etruscans, Latins, Falscans, Aequi, Volsci, Hernici and Aurunci lived in central Italy. In Apulia (the toe of Italy) there were the Dauni Puecetii and Messapii. In Calabria (the toe of Italy) there were the Enorti, Ausoni and Brutii. In the north there were the Ligurians, the Gauls (there were five groups of Gauls, the Taurini, Insubers, Centomani, Boii and Senones) and the Veneti. In the south there were also Greek settlements. There were also samller ethnic groups. In Sicily there were the Sicels and the Elymians, and the Sicani.
Who were the three groups that inhabited the Italian peninsula?
Three groups? There were more than twenty-four peoples living in mainland Italy when Rome was a newcomer. In central and southern Italy was the Osco-Umbrian linguistic group which included the Umbrians, Piceni, Sabines, Marsi, Marucini, Frentani, Vestini, Samnites, Campanians and Lucanians. In Apulia (the toe of Italy) there were the Dauni Puecetii and Messapii. In Calabria (the Toe of Italy, there were the Enorti, Ausoni and Brutii. The Latins, the Falscans and the Etruscans, Aequi, Volsci and Aurunci lived in central Italy In the north there were the the Ligurians, the Gauls (thee were five groups of Gauls, the Taurini, Insubers, Centomani, Boii and Senones) and the Veneti. In the south there were also Greek settlements These were the main groups of peoples who lived in Italy around 350 BC. There were more than likely many more smaller ethnic groups that either died out or merged with other groups.
What is Romans's first country they invaded?
Countries in the modern sense of the word (nation-states) did not exist in antiquity. There were three main types of state formations. One was kingdoms and empires. Another was territories of ethnic groups named after the group. These could be of a size similar to a county (as with the ethnic groups of central Italy) or a regional size. They could be collections of city-states as with Etruria (land of the Etruscans) and Latium (land of the Latins, Rome was one initially of these city-states), federations of tribes (as with Samnium, land of the Samnites, which was a federation of four Samnite tribes) or ethnic areas where each tribe had its own state, as with the Gauls of northern Italy whose tribes (the Taurini, Insubres, Boii, Cenomanes and Senones) were independent from each other. Finally, there were city-states whose size varied from district-type (a town and its surrounding countryside and villages) to region-wide territories which included other subject towns, such as Athens, Syracuse, Tarentum, etc. Rome's first conquests were other Latin city-states. Her first major conquest was the Etruscan city-state of Veii, near Rome, just across the river Tiber and whose territory stretched from the mountains northeast of Rome to the coast northwest of Rome.
When did the Romans started to invade countries?
The first country or better said the first territory outside the Italian peninsula was Sicily. Prior to the control of Sicily by the Romans, there were Greek colonies in the east and south, and Carthage had an number of cites with important ports in the west. At the conclusion of the 1st Punic War, part of the peace treaty between Rome & Carthage was the succession of Sicily to Rome.
When the Romans conquered other parts of Italy They?
Rome acquired control over Italy over a period of about 220 years. Most of Italy was not conquered. The largest part Italy was controlled through alliances, not conquest. Rome's first expansion was into the mountains of central and southern Italy as a result of the Three Samnite Wars against the Samnites of southern Italy (343 BC-341 BC, 326 BC 304 BC and 298 BC- 290 BC.) Rome made alliances with the peoples of these areas and only annexed the Sabines. At the end second of these wars Rome defeated the Aequi a small people in central Italy which had been an old foe of Rome. Following this, five small Sabellic peoples in central Italy (the Marsi, Maruccini, Paeligni and Vestini and Frentani), who had been allies of the Samnites, allied with Rome in 304 BC. In the Third Samnite War, Rome defeated an alliance between of Samnites, Umbrians and Senone Gauls of central Italy and a group of Etruscan cities-states in the Battle of Sentinium in 295 BC. At the end of the war the Samnites, Umbrians and Senone Gauls were forced to form alliances with Rome. The Lucanians, who lived to the south of the Samnites, decided to ally with Rome. Rome left the Etruscans alone. After having defeated them several times before and weakened them, they were no longer a threat. Etruscan civilisation decayed and they were absorbed through their becoming romanised. In 290 BC Rome also fought the nearby Sabines and won after a tough fight. She gave large areas Sabine land to Roman settlers. In 268 BC the Sabines were given Roman citizenship. The Romans conquered Gallia Cisalpina, a large area on northern Italy inhabited two Gallic peoples (the, Insubres and Boii) in 222 BC following a Gallic invasion into Etruria and attempted march on Rome. During this period, the Centomani Gauls and Veneti of north eastern Italy allied with Rome. The Taurini of north-western Italy where attacked by Hannibal during his invasion of Italy in the Second Punic War (218 BC-201 BC). After this war, they allied with Rome. The alliances made with Rome during the initial expansion into the mountains of central and southern Italy involved protection by Rome and the allies paying a tribute to Rome and providing her with soldiers at their own expense. These soldiers fought in auxiliary units which supported the Roman legions. The system worked because the Romans supported the ruling elites of the allied peoples and the allies shared the booty of war, which could be very substantial. Rome also founded colonies (settlements) in strategic areas to strengthen their control by establishing a presence there. The colonist provided Rome with intelligence and contributed to the Romanisation of the Italic peoples. The Romans also founded colonies in conquered Gallia Cisalpina.
