Phone books I have seen in the U.S. refer to these as city codes, with the "area code" term being used only for U.S./Canada/ Caribbean area (country code 1). Anyway, I combined that note with earlier information I had for Italy (country code 39), trimmed off the leading zeroes (used only on calls within Italy?), and came up with this list (using anglicized names like Venice, Rome, etc.): 39 Italy 1xx is north west 10 Genoa 11 Turin 2 Milan 3xx is Lombardia 4xx is north east 41 Venice 45 Verona 461 Trent (Trento) 5xx is central 51 Bologna 541 San Marino (independent country, to change to +295) 55 Florence 6 Rome (includes Vatican City, independent country, whose country code is given as "39 66982") 7xx is south west 8xx is south east 80 Bari 81 Naples 9xx is the islands 91 Palermo
