Italy-Veneto
Torcello island was one of the first lagoon islands to be populated by Veneti who fled the mainland to take shelter from the barbarian invasions. Torcello rapidly grew as a political and trading centre and in the 10th century had a population of at least 10,000 people and was much more powerful than Venice.
