Raddusa is a ''comune'' (municipality) in the Province of Catania in the Italian region Sicily, located about southeast of Palermo and about west of Catania near the lake Ogliastro. As of 31 December 2004, it had a population of 3,433 and an area of .〔All demographics and other statistics: Italian statistical institute Istat.〕 The main business of the town is based on agriculture, mainly of cereals, therefore, it is named "The City of Grain" and every year in September for 3 days the citizen meets themselves in the town center to celebrate their traditional Festa del Grano or Grain's Feast to remember the antic traditions of the places with a lot of activities, myth and fate. Raddusa has been a rich town for many decades for his growing business with the nearby territories and the municipalisation of the town that gives a big political power. In Sicily is a tradition to get power from public institution and become a corrupted person, think about own interests using the government tools to make own profit. This sad story has passed via Raddusa, also. The majors of the town, Moschetti, Cigna, Allegra and the current one Cosimo Marotta have slaved the town to a dark era, plundered the monetary resources and reduced the economy to a drastic end. The town, well known as the city of grain, has seen most of the citizens leave for a better fortune in nearby towns or abroad, there are not recreations services, not public sportiness areas, there is a soccer stadium without test authorisation, some tennis courts never opened, just a few public transportation and a huge fruit a vegetable market built for the profit of local politics. As we go around to town we can notice the luck of rubbish bins in the main streets, main squares or in the park. The asphalt of the roads is ruined with so many holes and bumps, the new road built recently that connects the only Raddusa's church to Aidone's junction has been closed due to the collapse of the whole route. Fortunately for the citizens there is another alternative poor conditioned road via Contrada Manca to reach the south area of the town, same citizens that have voted these majors, same citizens that are unable to report or change the history of the village, seeing the sons go far away to leave a better life and lose forever them. Most of people still reside in Raddusa but have domicile somewhere else, that brings down the demographic situation below to 1500 citizens leading to a lose of the municipal and institution's power for the benefit of the neighbouring towns politics, till an end of the town. Raddusa borders the following municipalities: Aidone, Assoro, Piazza Armerina, Castel di Judica, Ramacca. == Demographic evolution == Colors= id:lightgrey value:gray(0.9) id:darkgrey value:gray(0.8) id:sfondo value:rgb(1,1,1) id:barra value:rgb(0.6,0.7,0.8) ImageSize = width:455 height:303 PlotArea = left:50 bottom:50 top:30 right:30 DateFormat = x.y Period = from:0 till:5500 TimeAxis = orientation:vertical AlignBars = justify ScaleMajor = gridcolor:darkgrey increment:500 start:0 ScaleMinor = gridcolor:lightgrey increment:100 start:0 BackgroundColors = canvas:sfondo BarData= bar:1861 text:1861 bar:1871 text:1871 bar:1881 text:1881 bar:1901 text:1901 bar:1911 text:1911 bar:1921 text:1921 bar:1931 text:1931 bar:1936 text:1936 bar:1951 text:1951 bar:1961 text:1961 bar:1971 text:1971 bar:1981 text:1981 bar:1991 text:1991 bar:2001 text:2001 bar:2011 text:2011 PlotData= color:barra width:20 align:left bar:1861 from: 0 till:1611 bar:1871 from: 0 till:1830 bar:1881 from: 0 till:1944 bar:1901 from: 0 till:3444 bar:1911 from: 0 till:3539 bar:1921 from: 0 till:3520 bar:1931 from: 0 till:4954 bar:1936 from: 0 till:4146 bar:1951 from: 0 till:5199 bar:1961 from: 0 till:5138 bar:1971 from: 0 till:3953 bar:1981 from: 0 till:4596 bar:1991 from: 0 till:4191 bar:2001 from: 0 till:3535 bar:2011 from: 0 till:3235 PlotData= bar:1861 at:1611 fontsize:XS text: 1611 shift:(-8,5) bar:1871 at:1830 fontsize:XS text: 1830 shift:(-8,5) bar:1881 at:1944 fontsize:XS text: 1944 shift:(-8,5) bar:1901 at:3444 fontsize:XS text: 3444 shift:(-8,5) bar:1911 at:3539 fontsize:XS text: 3539 shift:(-8,5) bar:1921 at:3520 fontsize:XS text: 3520 shift:(-8,5) bar:1931 at:4954 fontsize:XS text: 4954 shift:(-8,5) bar:1936 at:4146 fontsize:XS text: 4146 shift:(-8,5) bar:1951 at:5199 fontsize:XS text: 5199 shift:(-8,5) bar:1961 at:5138 fontsize:XS text: 5138 shift:(-8,5) bar:1971 at:3953 fontsize:XS text: 3953 shift:(-8,5) bar:1981 at:4596 fontsize:XS text: 4596 shift:(-8,5) bar:1991 at:4191 fontsize:XS text: 4191 shift:(-8,5) bar:2001 at:3535 fontsize:XS text: 3535 shift:(-8,5) bar:2011 at:3235 fontsize:XS text: 3235 shift:(-8,5) TextData= fontsize:S pos:(20,20) text:Data from ISTAT 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Raddusa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
