I was researching for top Italian Websites on Education a few days back. I am an editor for an online education site and my chief editor had asked for a complete list of European educational sites. So I happened to visit this site https://ferdinandomenconi.it/


The site is about an Italian Celebrity who manages a clutch of many Italian classical and scientific schools in the Genova region of Italy. Fortunately for me - who has zilch Italian language skills, the site also has an English version unlike most sites I had come across. I ended up following many links to some of the schools he manages.


What surprises me most is the way - rather the content management system - the site is built on. Every URL is so convoluted that it is a complete surprise I could find the site in a search from Google. For people used to short pithy URLs churned out by most American CMS systems, this came as a rude surprise. The site is incredibly slow. The English translation is not really up to the International standard. But aside from these cribs, I could find a few top educational sites from the site.


A little gem I found from this site:


It is about the Italian Grey Wolf:


Desire for independence, but also strong sense of belonging to the pack: this is proven by the ability to hunt in group under the resolute guidance of the leader. Wolves are monogamous and very similar to humans in the way they are socially organized. They are attentive and caring towards their cubs, respectful to the older ones and, if they lose their partner, wolves often end up living in solitude.
