There are two. Etna, and Vesuvius. Vesuvius is a very active volcano and is monitored daily in case of an eruption. Over a million people live near to the volcano. When it erupted in 79 AD it buried the city of Pompeii and changed the coastline of Italy. The final eruption was a explosion that completely buried Pompeii in 7 minutes in 65 feet of ash and rocks.
