Foggia ([ˈfɔddʒa]) is a city and comune of Apulia, in southern Italy, capital of the province of Foggia. In 2013 its population was 153,143. Foggia is the main city of a plain called Tavoliere, also known as the "granary of Italy".
The name Foggia derives from Latin "fovea", meaning "pit", referring to the pits where wheat was stored. Although the area had been settled since Neolithic times, and a Greek colony known as Argos Hippium (in Greek, Ἀργόριππα or Ἀργύριππόι) existed nearby, the first document attesting the existence of the modern city dates from 1000 AD. According to the legend, the first settlers were peasants who had found a panel portraying the Madonna, on which three flames burnt.
The area was marshy and unhealthy. Robert Guiscard directed draining the wetland, boosting the economic and social growth of the city. The city was the seat of Henry, Count of Monte Sant'Angelo during the last twenty years of the 11th century. In the 12th century, William II of Sicily built a cathedral here and further enlarged the settlement.

Pino Campagna in “Si è rotta la pleistescion”, interpreta, in chiave comica, la realtà postmoderna mettendo a confronto l'infanzia di vent'anni fa, fatta di genuinità e innocenza, dove per divertirsi bastava un pallone e la merenda pomeridiana era a base di pane e pomodoro, con quella attuale più artefatta e fondata su legami virtuali.

Take a tour of Tremiti Islands in Foggia, Italy - part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats. The clear blue waters of the Adriatic Sea are the setting for the Tremiti Islands, just off the coast of southeastern Italy. The name of the island complex means "tremors" due to its history of seismic activity and fault location. This archipelago consists of five islands, three of which are uninhabited due to either their low elevation or infertile composition. The two inhabited islands feature a vast array of landscapes, including arid limestone, dense woods, and sandy beach. Some of Italy's political prisoners, from as far back as the Roman Empire to the years of Mussolini's reign, have been confined here. In 1989, the Tremiti Islands' impo...

Capoluogo della omonima provincia pugliese, ha più di centocinquantamila abitanti. Gli abitanti sono detti "foggiani". E' medaglia d'oro al valor militare
Siamo in compagnia di Renzo Arbore in quella che un tempo fu la Capitanata, Foggia. E' una città che ha radici lontane (ci sono reperti di Federico II) ma che oggi si presenta come una città di impronta moderna. Oltre a poter ascoltare buona musica, è lo struscio, il passeggio nel centro città, uno dei modi in cui le persone trascorrono le serate in compagnia; sedersi a tavola poi è una soddisfazione: ottimi sono i piatti contadini fatti con prodotti di questa terra definita il "Granaio d'Italia".

So much pain, oh yeah
This is for my strugglers
Hear me crying in the rain
I need your help, come help me now
There's so much pain
Wasted, hungry, and so much to give
And all we need is a chance to live
And just be free
For we are the victims of this political war
We do not want our children to suffer more
In a world where only a few would rule
No equal opportunity for the majority
Unite now, unite now
We got to unite now, unite now
Unemployed, Im tired of being pushed around
By my family, by society,
But whos to blame?
Open you eyes and try to see the reality
That you can feel the way we feel
And it will open your eyes
For we are the victims of this political war
We do not want our children to suffer more
In a world where only a few can rule
No equal opportunity for majority
Unite now, unite now
We got to unite now, unite now
Attracted by the city lights many come to see
But there's nothing more than the country life
When there was so much joy
In the city you have to give a lot to live
Youll have to steal cause there's no world go round
There's so much pain
For we are the victims of this political war
We do not want our children to suffer more
In a world where only a few would rule
No equal opportunity for my family
We got to unite now, unite now (my Polynesian people)
Unite now (my Melanesian people) unite now (Micronesian people)
