44°N is also the latitude of Rimini - the finest city of our beautiful region
Exactly at the boundary between Northern and Central Italy, by the sea, near the Marche region, between the Po Valley and the hills. According to some definition, it's on the boundary between continental Italy an the peninsula.

58°N

Not many cities at this latitude, some in Sweden, Norway, Russia, maybe some villages in Canada and Alaska, dunno.

If someone has to do some observations about parallel 50, or other parallels... vegetation that changes, language groups, traditions, sensations?

Yes parallel 45 or 44 .. is the divide line between continentaly italy and peninsular italy

Of course now, the day is less than 6 hours long.

Well yes in winter is the reverse. But the dawn moment in winter is still long?.. i remember it should be like that.. as one move to the poles the dawn should las long. At the eqator instead is very neat.. one moment you have day with full stfong rays..the moment after dark night
