Rome is the capital of Italy and one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, founded, according to legend, in 753 BC. It operates on Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) in winter and CEST (UTC+2) in summer. Rome was the center of the Roman Empire — the most powerful civilization in Western history — which at its peak controlled territories from Britain to Mesopotamia. Today, Rome is simultaneously the Italian capital, a global tourist destination, and home to the Vatican City State — the world's smallest internationally recognized independent state and headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church. The Colosseum, built between 70–80 AD, could hold 50,000–80,000 spectators and remains the world's largest ancient amphitheater. Rome has more UNESCO World Heritage Sites within its city limits than any other city in the world. The city's cuisine — pasta carbonara, cacio e pepe, supplì — is some of the most imitated in the world.
