On the 30th of june 1932 Latina was inaugurated and at the beginning named Littoria. The town was populated by immigrants from the regions of Veneto, Friuli and Emilia. During 1944 the town was seriously damaged by the bombing of the II World War. In 1946 its name changed into Latina and this marked the departure from the fascist dictatorship. During 60s and 70s the city experienced a remarkable economic growth and population increase becoming a industrialized city.
