What was the major crop grown in Italy in 1900?
In 1900, the major crop grown in Italy was wheat, which was a staple food and a critical component of the Italian diet. Other significant crops included corn, rice, and various fruits and vegetables, but wheat dominated agricultural production due to its importance in bread-making. The agricultural landscape was diverse, reflecting Italy's varied climate and geography, which allowed for the cultivation of different crops in different regions.
Table Wine:
- Vino da Tavola (VDT) - Denotes simply that the wine is made in Italy. The label usually indicates a basic wine, made for local consumption.
- Indicazione Geografica Tipica (IGT) - Denotes wine from a more specific region within Italy. This appellation was created in 1992 for wines that were considered to be of higher quality than simple table wines, but which did not conform to the strict wine laws for their region. Before the IGT was created, "Super Tuscan" wines such as Tignanello were labeled Vino da Tavola.
QWPSR:
- Denominazione di Origine Controllata (DOC)
- Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita(DOCG)
Both DOC and DOCG wines refer to zones which are more specific than an IGT, and the permitted grapes are also more specifically defined. The DOC system began in 1963, seeking to establish a method of both recognizing quality product and maintaining the international and national reputation of that product. The main difference between a DOC and a DOCG is that the latter must pass a blind taste test for quality in addition to conforming to the strict legal requirements to be designated as a wine from the area in question. After the sweeping wine laws of 1992, transparent rules were made regarding requirements for DOCG entry, imposing new limits regarding the production of grapes per hectare and minimum natural alcohol levels, among others.
The overall goal of the system is to encourage producers to focus on quality wine making

If you refer to the Second World War, well, the situation is as follows.
1) For cultural and historical reasons, Italians are relatively more individualist and more hostile to authority than the average of the other European countries. This is the reason why the Italian society is quite difficult to organise in terms of bureaucracy, taxes and so on. This also reflects on armies - the good functioning of an army rests on its organization and the respect of authority. But an Italian army will always have a slightly greater percentage of people who disobey orders than, say, a German or a Northern European army. Those countries, for cultural reasons, are inhabited by people who tightly stick to the rules and the orders they are ordered to follow. More discipline. This has been hypothesized to originate from both the fact that Italy is a young country, which used to be fragmented into many small States (as opposed to countries that have been there for centuries, such as France, the UK, Scandinavian Countries, with a subsequently higher sense of citizenship and belonging to a Nation) and the fact that Northern European country have a Protestant heritage, which implies being adamantly accurate in everything one does in their profession. But this is not the place to discuss such matters ;)
2) The Italian army was very ill-equipped, especially if compared to the German army, which was backed by a technologically advanced industry. At that time, Italian economy was significantly poorer than the German one. Still nowadays, in spite of being one of the most industrialized countries in the world, Italian economy is much weaker than that of Germany, that had its first industrial revolution in the middle decades XIX century.
3) Most Italians did not actually trust or believe in Mussolini and in Fascism. They were against it, even though they did nothing (either because they couldn't, because in a totalitarian state any dissent is repressed, or because they believed the best thing for them was to just go on pretending to support the regime). However, since they were not fanatical fascists, they were not as emotionally and psychologically committed as probably were most Germans (many of which had been brainwashed by Hitler's propaganda. Of course, not all Germans did actually believe in Nazism as well). You can't fight well in a war if you don't believe in what you are doing.
I am Italian, with a passion for history. Hope I've been helpful ;)

How far is it from Lucca Italy to florence Italy?
It is 26.7km, approx 35 minutes in the car.
If you take the Circumvesuviana train line from Naples' 'Garibaldi Square' station and get off at the 'Pompeii Scavi' station it will take you around 30 minutes and is very easy.
I'd recommend taking the train :)
