Is there any way to keep the main language in Italy Latin? Time is between the fall of Rome and 1900, Good Luck
The Italian language is more or less "modern Latin". Of course somewhat changed and influenced by barbaric invaders but it's the closest thing to the vulgar dialects dominating the Italian Peninsula in late antiquity and early medieval. By that time pure classical Latin was used only by the higher classes, in administration, in Church and in the literature but common people has spoken all sorts of "polluted" dialects. Get real, romanophiles.
