The slogan for the City is Quot see Naples and  obviously this is a very old saying because any modern Day chamber of Commerce would probably say this is not the worlds most Catchy slogan to attract tourists maybe Florida can borrow our saying for the time being. The meaning behind our slogan is that once you be seen Naples you be seen everything there is to see in life. Ours is a City of incredible diversity contrast contradiction and vitality. It continually tests not Only your patience but your intellect and soul As Well. We Are an old City a More than 2500 years old i am told.

Italy. ,. _ j e All enjoy the fourth of july a birthday parly for our country Lime off from work fireworks food and drink. As we spend our weekends indulging in these i would like to offer. Thoughts about the declaration of Independence. The declaration forged a Legal plan and a concept. The arguments and ideas it set Forth Are the embodiment of themes evolved through years of reason and trials. It raised these contentions into action sever-1 ing ties with England. It charges americans with maintaining the nation that the document defined. To move from hypothesis to reality required great risk.  their visions into practice tempted the certainty of War. War fought alone was a dismaying Prospect and the european political situation held Only a precarious Hope for either political or military assistance. To succeed their idea would have to withstand the scrutiny of self preserving noblemen As Wrell As Appeal to the needs of their fellow colonists. As with All vast tumultuous shifts of a society a fundamental mechanisms there Are varying degrees of allegiance to revolutionary change and at Home there were no opinion polls to imply Public assent. Secure determined support could Only be yearned. For and to fail in their efforts was equivalent to treason a punished by hanging. The declaration marked the grave step from a we think arid believe to Quot we Are and will  what then is this idea then As today the idea is self government that people can regulate themselves speak for themselves and thrive. There were conspicuous differences Between the declarations prose and realities of the time but the idea combines esteem for the individual and the thought that everyone should have the Opportunity to ascend As far As their lights and talents can take them. The revolutionary War ensured these ideas would be Given a fair test. The Legal machinery of the Constitution provided a Means for development. Through Many trials our a Reba is ref i Ned thes e.
