It's Naples, saying that Naples is Europe is like saying the Bronx is the USA. Maybe a poor analogy but the idea is that Naples is full of shit or at least it was a few years ago.
And by full of shit I mean it literally : it had a major waste problem with piles of garbage littering the streets. As for the economy, it was all governed by the mafia. Businesses had to pay money to them for "protection". Maybe it has improved but when I went there it didn't look at all like what one could expect from an European city (excluding tourist places I suppose).
Camorra. They're similar but without the code of honour.
