Since ancient times, to be a citizen of Rome has been a source of pride. Today there is still considerable prestige in being a Romano di Roma, or “Roman” Roman. Among such Romans are the “black nobility,” families with papal titles who form a society within high society, shunning publicity and not given to great intimacy with the “white nobility,” whose titles were conferred by mere temporal rulers. The inhabitants who consider themselves the most nobly Roman of them all are the people of the Trastevere (“Across the Tiber”) district. In ancient times, Trastevere was the quarter for sailors and foreigners, whereas the founding fathers eastward across the river were soldiers and farmers. From the Middle Ages a number of palaces there were the homes of powerful families.
Although the great majority of Romans are Catholics, the city also is home to a variety of other religious groups. Jewish people, for example, have lived in the city for thousands of years. Jews generally were not persecuted in Rome until the 16th-century pope Paul IV forced them into a ghetto (near Piazza Navona). Later popes carried on his anti-Jewish program. Except for brief respites under Napoleon I and the momentary Roman Republic of 1849, Jews were debarred from all the professions, government service, and landownership until 1870, when Rome was integrated into united Italy and religious persecution outlawed. Later redevelopment destroyed much of the ghetto, although some streets remain, and the position of some of the gates can still be seen.
During the 1930s and following World War II, Italians from all over the south and from rural Lazio arrived seeking work in the capital city. The population of Rome rose particularly rapidly in the 1950s and ’60s, from just over 1,960,000 in 1951 to more than 2,610,000 in 1967. Population growth then slowed, as many Romans moved out of the city proper and into other parts of Roma province.
