It is believed that Perugia was inhabited by Etruscan tribes since the 11^th to 10^th century B.C. However, this astonishing city was not known until the 1^st century B.C., when the Romans conquered the place. Perugia was restored and expanded during their period in power. In the 12^th century, Perugia was established, for the first time as a municipality. In the 19^th century, the city suffered a huge loss in an appalling massacre that changed the life of its people. Currently, Perugia has been able to arise from the ashes of old times, becoming an important touristic center.
