Steve5721: Food historians agree that pizza like dishes were eaten by many peoples in the Mediterranean including the Greeks and Egyptians.
However, modern pizza has been attributed to baker Raffaele Esposito of Naples. In 1889, Esposito who owned a restaurant called the Pizzeria di Pietro baked what he called "pizza" especially for the visit of Italian King Umberto I and Queen Margherita.
The first pizzeria in North America was opened in 1905 by Gennaro Lombardi in New York City.

Of course, it wasn't until that American take that it became as renowned as it is today, so, shan't we say the Americans invented it?
Or, at least, are responsible for it's popularity?
However, in my monist opinion, there is a big difference between Pizza in Italy and Pizza in America, in America the base is pre made and delivered to the shop in the back of a lorry, it is usually flooded with tomato sauce and has defrosted bits of processed food added, whereas in Italy it is freshly made base, thin and with wholesome flour and olive oil and very little salt, has a very thin coating of Tom sauce and all the ingredients are fresh.
My fav was fresh fish with anchovies and black olives hmmm I really miss those pizza's Chinese pizza is bloody awful
