It is also the only region of the Italian mainland that bathes the sea. Bordered to the east and northeast with Marks, west and northwest Tuscany and the south and southwest by the Lazio. Also, is this an enclave in the Marches, in the municipality of Città di Castello. The regional capital is Perugia, in Italy, Perugia. The official language, as in the rest of Italy, is Italian.

In the literature, sometimes called green Umbria cuor il d'Italia ("the green heart of Italy"). The phrase is taken from a poem on the Odes Giosuè Carducci Barbarian (1877), although the issue is not Umbria but it a particular place, the source of the river Clitunno.

umbria map The territory is dominated by hills (by 63%) and mountains (31%) and has a tiny flat piece of land (6%) .

The region offers a variety of morphological and landscape through the succession valleys, mountain ranges, plateaus and plains, which are the dominant geographic feature. Its topography is dominated by the Apennines, with its highest point in the mountain region bordering Vettore Marks, with 2476 meters. The maximum altitude is reached in the eastern part of the region, in the Sibylline mountains (Monti Sibillini, 2,478 m). In this area there is the Sibillini Mountains National Park.

The highlight is the river Tiber Umbria walking in north-south and forms the border with Lazio about, but its source is right on the border of Tuscany. In the valley of this river is the lowest point of Umbria in Attigliano (96 m). The three main tributaries of the Tiber flows south through Umbria. The basin is relatively uninhabited Chiascio until Bastia Umbra. About 10 km beyond the Tiber joins Torgiano. The Topino, open the Apennines by steps that followed the Via Flaminia and carretras its successors, and makes a sharp turn at Foligno to flow in a northwesterly direction for a few kilometers before joining Bettona Chiascio below. The third river is the Nera, which flows into the Tiber further south, at Terni, its valley is called Valnerina. The upper Nera cuts ravines in the mountains, the lower-basin Chiascio Topino is in a fairly large floodplain.
