All of the characters in Romeo and Juliet were Roman Catholics. That was and is the religion of the vast majority of Italians. It was not the official religion of England in Shakespeare's day, and Shakespeare was officially an Anglican, as everyone had to be by law.
Romeo and Juliette was taken place in Verona Italy in the 1500s.
The setting of Romeo and Juliet is in Verona, a city in Italy.
At the time he was living in Bishopsgate, just to the north of London.
The principal setting for Romeo and Juliet is in Verona, Italy. All of the scenes take place in Verona except for Act V, Scene 1, which takes place in the city of Mantua. The time is July in an unspecified year.
Although Verona is now a part of Italy, the unified state of Italy has only existed for about 150 years. At the time the play was written, and at the time it was set, there was no such thing as Italy. Romeo would not have considered himself to be Italian; rather, he would think of himself as Veronese.

No.
It could be the "Florin", minted in Florence, which was a centre of commerce in Italy during the time of Shakespeare. However, it is more likely to be the "Ducat", a coin minted in Venice and named for the Duke of Venice. Verona is very close to Venice. Actually there is no such thing as "in the time of Romeo and Juliet", since it is a fiction and there is no time specified in the text. In the Baz Luhrmann film, the time of Romeo and Juliet is the late 20th century and Verona is in California. For the purposes of that film, the currency in the time of Romeo and Juliet is the US Dollar.

Early Monday afternoon. The nurse goes to meet Romeo at nine and they chat and then she returns and talks to Juliet, taking her sweet time about it. By the time Juliet got there it would be probably just after noon. It is mid-afternoon when Romeo has his run-in with Tybalt.
