Rome (Italian: Roma) is the capital city of Italy. Alongside Beijing, Nairobi, Moscow and San Francisco, it is one of the five cities Luigi must visit in Mario is Missing! in order to defeat Ludwig von Koopa in the SNES version and Larry Koopa in the PC version. Several items were stolen from famous landmarks by Bowser's Koopalings: in the NES and SNES versions, these include a Gladiator's Spear from the Colosseum, some Coins from the Trevi Fountain, and the Sistine Chapel ceiling from the Sistine Chapel. In the PC version, alongside the spear and coins, Michelangelo's Paintbrush is stolen instead of the Chapel's ceiling, a Column is stolen from the Pantheon, and a Bannister is stolen from the Spanish Steps. When in Rome, Luigi must ask the locals questions about the area and answer geographical and historical questions to return the items to their rightful place.
Rome is also referenced by Donkey Kong in the Hard Work song from The Big Chill Out in the Donkey Kong Country television series.
