Source-derived summary

Roio Piano is a frazione of L'Aquila in the Abruzzo, region of Italy. In the 13th century it was one of the fortified settlements which formed the city of L'Aquila, although Roio maintained a degree of autonomy and, later, a separate comune until 1927.

The destructive and deadly 2009 Abruzzo earthquake was felt in Roio Piano.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Roio Piano”, the useful work is to connect “frazione of L'Aquila, Italy” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 31, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3940206. Authority coordinates are 42.328, 13.357. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1927 and 2009.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
