Italian Battleship Impero
''Impero'' was the fourth built for Italy's ''Regia Marina'' (Royal Navy) during the World War II, Second World War. She was named after the Italian word for "empire", in this case referring to the newly (1936) conquered Italian Empire in East Africa (Somaliland, Eritrea and Ethiopia territories) as a result of the Second Italo-Abyssinian War. She was constructed under the order of the 1938 Naval Expansion Program, along with her sister ship ''Italian battleship Roma (1940), Roma''. ''Impero'' was laid down in May 1938 and launched in November 1939. The entrance of Italy into World War II forced the ''Regia Marina'' to refocus its construction priorities on escort warships, so ''Impero'' was left incomplete. After Italy surrendered to the Allies of World War II, Allies on 8 September 1943, the rest of the Italian Navy steamed to Sardinia to rendezvous with their American contemporaries. Still incomplete in Trieste, ''Impero'' was captured by the Germans, who used the hulk for ta ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cinema Impero
The Cinema Impero ( "Empire Cinema") is an Art Deco-style cinema in Asmara, the capital of Eritrea. It was built in 1937 by the colonial authorities in Italian Eritrea. History ''Cinema Impero'' was the largest movie theater constructed in Asmara during the last period of the Italian colony of Eritrea.

It is a tourist attraction in modern Asmara – along with the famous Fiat Tagliero Building and some other Italian-period structures of colonial Eritrea (including the Presidential Palace and the City Hall) – that have made Asmara a World Heritage Site by the UNE ...

Imperial Line
The Imperial Line () was a flight route of the Italian national airline Ala Littoria between 1935 and 1941 during the Fascist era. It was the longest route in the Italian colonial empire in Africa and "the jewel in Ala Littoria's crown".Caprotti, "Imagining Ethiopia", pp. 388–90. It connected Rome with Benghazi (Libya), Asmara (Eritrea), Addis Abeba (Ethiopia) and Mogadishu (Somalia). It carried passengers and mail. Italy ultimately lost control of the route during World War II. According to Federico Caprotti, "The celebration of colonial air links ... can be seen as playing into modern connotations of speed, progress, and reach, as well as aspirations to superiority. ... e geographical imaginations evinced through the airline's documents and visual materials are deeply modern in their celebration of technological prowess and the domination of nature and space." Development Ala Littoria's service to East Africa was inaugurated in 1935 under the name ''Linea dell'Impero''. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
