-=== Immigration into Italy  ===
-Many people moved to Italy during the following periods:
-'''Early 1200s.''' Waldensian emigrants from France moved to northern Italy as a result of religious persecution.
-'''1431 to about 1450.''' Thousands of Greek and Albanian Christians moved into Italy as a result of persecution under the Muslim Turks. They settled in coastal areas of the Italian peninsula and in Sicilia.
-'''1492 to 1692.''' Thousands of Jewish emigrants moved into Italy because of religious persecution. Most of them came from Spain and Portugal. Many settled in Roma and other major cities.
-Unfortunately, very few immigration sources exist for Italy. Instead, look for emigration records of the country from which your ancestor moved.
