Roma Church (Swedish: Roma kyrka) is a medieval Lutheran church in Lövsta, Gotland (Sweden), in the Diocese of Visby.
The presently visible church was preceded by a considerably smaller, Romanesque church. Some fragments from this church have been re-used and incorporated in the façade of the later church. The still extant sacristy is also a remnant of this earlier church.
The earlier church was torn down and successively replaced with one more Gothic in style during the 13th century. It was built between 1215 and 1255; dendrochronological examinations have shown that the latest additions were made in 1280. The nave and choir seem to have been erected during a single period of construction, possibly with the exception for the westernmost part of the nave, which is slightly different in style. A tower was evidently planned for the church but never executed. Influences for the somewhat unusual architecture may have come from nearby Roma Abbey and thus the traditions of Cistercian architecture. The church has remained largely unaltered since the Middle Ages. The large western rose window was however added in the 1880s and the church underwent a renovation in 1902.
The church seems to have had a special function. It was built close to the location of the thing of all of Gotland, and not far from a Cistercian monastery, Roma Abbey. Unlike a regular church, it had five entrances (instead of three) and its architecture differs from other churches on Gotland. The likeness of the church with that of the Dominicans in Visby (now ruined) is noticeable. There is therefore reason to believe that the church may have been used by the Dominicans, possibly to preach for crusades against non-Christians in what is today the Baltic states.

Roma kyrka är en kyrkobyggnad som tillhör Roma församling i Visby stift.
Den medeltida kalkstenskyrkan i Roma kyrkby består av ett treskeppigt långhus med ett smalare rakt avslutat kor i öster samt sakristia på nordsidan. Sakristian, som är äldst, byggdes ursprungligen till ett absidkor från 1100-talets senare hälft (absidstenar återfinns i nuvarande kyrkans murverk). Vid en senare byggnadsperiod (troligen på 1200-talet) uppfördes kor och långhus (tre travéer); avvikelser i valvform och fönsterutformning tyder på att de två västligaste travéerna tillkom något senare. Utifrån sett är kyrkan en basilika med låg klerestorievåning. En takryttare, åttkantig tornspira med klockvåning under skärmtak, kröner västgaveln. Koret täcks av ett lägre sadeltak och sakristian har pulpettak. En igenmurad tornbåge i västmuren vittnar om ett planerat men ej utfört västtorn. Av kyrkans fem portaler (fyra långhusportaler och en korportal) har långhusets nord- respektive sydportal rikast utformning. En stenfigur på östra korgaveln (vattenkastare) tros härröra från den äldre kyrkan. Västgavelns rundfönster med masverk av huggen kalksten är från 1880-talet. Kyrkorummet är av hallkyrkomodell där mittskeppets kryssvalv är något högre än sidoskeppens. Långhuset har nio kryssvalv som bärs upp av fyra tunga pelare. Koret, som också är kryssvälvt, lyses upp av östväggens trefönstergrupp och av ett sydfönster. I norra kormuren finns en nisch med snidad omfattning av trä, ett sakramentsskåp från 1200-talet. Kyrkans nygotiska inredning härstammar från en restaurering 1902.
Orgeln byggdes 1873 av Åkerman & Lund Orgelbyggeri i Stockholm. 1990 genomgick orgeln en renovering av J Künkels Orgelverkstad AB i Färjestaden. Orgeln är mekanisk.

Roma è un ente speciale italiano di 2.748.809 abitanti, capoluogo della provincia di Roma, della regione Lazio e capitale della Repubblica Italiana.
È il comune più popoloso e più esteso d'Italia ed è il primo comune europeo per grandezza del territorio; per antonomasia, è definita l'Urbe e la Città eterna.
Nel corso della sua trimillenaria storia, è stata la prima grande metropoli dell'umanità[10], cuore di una delle più importanti civiltà antiche, che influenzò la società, la cultura, la lingua, la letteratura, l'arte, l'architettura, la filosofia, la religione, il diritto, i costumi dei secoli successivi; fu capitale dell'Impero romano, che estendeva il suo dominio su tutto il bacino del Mediterraneo e gran parte dell'Europa, e dello Stato Pontificio, sottoposto al potere temporale dei Papi.
È la città con la più alta concentrazione di beni storici e architettonici al mondo; il suo centro storico delimitato dal perimetro delle mura aureliane, sovrapposizione di testimonianze di quasi tre millenni, è espressione del patrimonio storico, artistico e culturale del mondo occidentale europeo e, nel 1980, insieme alle proprietà extraterritoriali della Santa Sede nella città e la basilica di San Paolo fuori le mura, è stato inserito nella lista dei Patrimoni dell'umanità dell'UNESCO.
Roma, cuore della cristianità cattolica, è l'unica città al mondo ad ospitare al proprio interno uno stato straniero, l'enclave della Città del Vaticano: per tale motivo è spesso definita capitale di due Stati.
Roma é a capital da Itália e sede da comuna e da província com o mesmo nome, na região do Lácio. Conhecida internacionalmente como A Cidade Eterna pela sua história milenar, Roma espalha-se pelas margens rio Tibre, compreendendo o seu centro histórico com as suas sete colinas: Palatino, Aventino, Campidoglio, Quirinale, Viminale, Esquilino, e Celio. Segundo o mito romano, a cidade foi fundada a cerca de 753 a.C.. (data convencionada) por Rómulo e Remo, dois irmãos criados por uma loba, que são actualmente símbolos da cidade. Desde então tornou-se no centro da Roma Antiga (Reino de Roma, República Romana, Império Romano) e, mais tarde, dos Estados Pontifícios, Reino de Itália e, por fim, da República Italiana.
No interior da cidade encontra-se o estado do Vaticano, residência do Papa. É uma das cidades com maior importância na História mundial, sendo um dos símbolos da civilização europeia.[3] Conserva inúmeras ruínas e monumentos na parte antiga da cidade, especialmente da época do Império Romano, e do Renascimento, o movimento cultural que nasceu na Itália.
A área metropolitana tem cerca de 2 546 804 habitantes (2001), e estende-se por uma área de 1285 km², tendo uma densidade populacional de 1981 hab/km², o que a torna na maior cidade da Itália e também na capital européia de maiores dimensões. O presidente da câmara (Sindaco) em 2008 é Gianni Alemanno.
Rome (English Italian: Roma, is the capital of Italy and the country's largest and most populated city and comune, with over 2.7 million residents in 1,285.3 km2 (496.3 sq mi). The population of the urban area was estimated by Eurostat to be 3.46 million in 2004, The metropolitan area was estimated by OECD to have a population of 3.7 million in 2006.
The city of Rome is located in the central-western portion of the Italian Peninsula, on the Tiber river within the Lazio region of Italy. Rome's history spans over two and a half thousand years. It was the capital city of the Roman Kingdom, the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire, which was the dominant Power in Western Europe and the lands bordering the Mediterranean Sea for over seven hundred years from the 1st Century BC until the 7th Century AD. Since the 2nd Century AD Rome has been the seat of the Papacy and, after the end of Byzantine domination, in the 8th century it became the capital of the Papal States, which lasted until 1870. In 1871 Rome became the capital of the Kingdom of Italy, and in 1946 that of the Italian Republic. Since 1929 it is also the site of the Vatican City, an independent city-state presided over by the Pope.
After the Middle-Ages, Rome was ruled by popes such as Alexander VI and Leo X, who transformed the city into one of the major centers of the Italian Renaissance, along with Florence. The current-day version of St Peter's Basilica was built and the Sistine Chapel was painted by Michelangelo. Famous artists and architects, such as Bramante, Bernini and Raphael resided for some time in Rome, contributing to its Renaissance and Baroque architecture.
Rome's influence on western Civilisation can hardly be overestimated, and the city is still recognised as a centre of the arts and education. Due to this centrality on many levels, and much of the city's past and present power and influence, Rome has been nicknamed "Caput Mundi" (Latin for "Capital of the World") and "The Eternal City". The city is, in addition, an important centre of pilgrimage in the Christian, notably the Roman Catholic Church,[12] and St Peter's Basilica, found in the Holy See, is often called "the greatest of all churches of Christendom". Rome's architectural and archaeological sites, and its rich artistic and historical heritage, contribute to its historical centre being inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its global influence in politics, literature, high culture, the arts, music, religion, education, fashion, cinema and cuisine lead it to being considered an Alpha- world city, according to Loughborough University and GaWC in 2008. Rome is also a hub of the cinematic and filming industry; for example, the Cinecittà Studios, Europe's biggest which saw the filming of several internationally acclaimed movies as well as television programmes, are located in the city.
Since the 1957 Treaty of Rome establishing the European Economic Community, the metropolis has served as a centre for international co-operative activities, with worldwide organizations such as World Food Programme (WFP), Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and the NATO Defence College being headquartered in the city. Rome is regarded as being one of the nation's principle centres of business, media and finance, along with Milan. The Rome metropolitan area has a GDP of €109.4 billion (US$ 149.14), and according to a 2008 study, the city is the world's 35th richest city by purchasing power, with a GDP of €94.376 billion (US$ 121.5 billion). Rome is also the world's 26th most expensive city (in 2010), and is the richest in Italy in terms of total earnings and 30th globally. The city has been recognized, by different studies, to be a leading European business and economic centre.
The city hosted the 1960 Olympic Games, and is also an official candidate for the 2020 edition of this event
In 2007 Rome was the 11th-most-visited city in the world, 3rd most visited in the EU, and the most popular tourist attraction in Italy. The city is one of Europe's and the world's most successful city brands, both in terms of reputation and assets. Its historic centre is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Monuments and museums such as the Vatican Museums and the Colosseum are amongst the world's 50 most visited tourist destinations (the Vatican Museums receiving 4.2 million tourists and the Colosseum receiving 4 million tourists every year).

You and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll fly away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day
In this day and age it's so easy to stress
'Cause people are strange and you can never second guess
In order to love child we got to be strong
I'm caught in the crossfire why can't we get along
'Cause you and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll fly away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day
I'm having a daydream, we're getting somewhere
I'm kissing your lips and running fingers through your hair
I'm as nervous as you 'bout making it right
Though we know we were wrong, we can't give up the fight
Oh no
'Cause you and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll run away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day
You and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll fly away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day
You and me (you and me) we're meant to be (meant to be)
Walking free (walking free) in harmony (in harmony)
One fine day (one fine day) we' ll ran away (we gonna ran away, we gonna ran away)
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day
You and me (you and me) we're meant to be (meant to be)
Walking free (walking free) in harmony (in harmony)
One fine day (one fine day) we' ll fly away (we gonna ran away, we gonna ran away)
Don't you know that Rome wasn' t built in a day
