Geography

The total area of the islands is 16.636,5 square kilometers.

At the edge of the waterfall is a rock-carved pool called the Devil’s Pool.

The Dead Sea is the deepest inland saltwater body of water.

The Dead Sea lies about 314 meters below sea level, in a geological fault that extends into southern Africa and forms the lowest point of the earth's surface here.

33 major rivers flow into the Gulf of Mexico.

The area where the waterfall was formed was the result of a volcanic eruption that took place about 130 million years ago.

After the eruption of Avellino in 1995 BC, the volcano passed into a state of more frequent but less dangerous eruptions.

Its maximum depth is 1,025 meters, which places it in third place in terms of maximum depth, right after Baikal (1,637 m) and Tanganyika (1,435 m).

The fire that invaded the island in early October 2022 caused irreversible damage to many of the statues.

At the same time, it is the only active volcano on the territory of continental Europe and one of three active volcanoes on the territory of Italy.
