It has a dynamic and rich cultural history that is a mix of many different invading forces over the course of history, each leaving its own mark on Sicily's art, cuisine, and language. Various archeological areas can be found throughout the island and many are UNESCO World Heritage sites. Sicilians have their own language, although most speak Italian and many learn English in school.
