Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Rome as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Movies and TV series filmed elsewhere in Rome

58 productions shot at 58 places inside Rome, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Rome itself.

46 more places are inside Rome — see them on the map.

Set here

Video games and Anime that take place here. None of them is filmed anywhere, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood — a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason. The rows marked per its source work are placed by the book they adapt rather than by a statement of their own.

And 2 more set here:

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Rome, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.

And 23 more, per Wikipedia:

Drawn from this place

Productions whose Japanese Wikipedia article names Rome as a real place their setting was modelled on. Nothing was filmed here and no story happens here: somebody drew it from here. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, which is why it sits under its own heading, and each production’s page links the article the claim came from.
