Italian churches are stacked with coffins, how exactly is the Italian funeral system different from other countries?

Italy believes in the Latin culture, and in their country, if someone passes away, then a funeral obituary must be published. This is something that they take very seriously about funerals and this is kind of the most different thing about them from other countries. Because of the different customs, the way they take for funerals is different from other countries. Italy is Catholic and after a person dies, they must be put in a casket and then the casket is sent to the home first. This is very special.

Many people think that Italians don't use coffins, but they don't. They are also transported in coffins when they die and are also required to be cremated. Some time ago, the epidemic in Italy was very serious, and the number of infected people was huge. The number of deaths also skyrocketed, resulting in coffins that didn't even have anywhere to go.

Italy is one of the European countries. As far as in the European context, there is a distinction in the funeral system of each country. France is also of the Catholic faith and their method of burial is earth burial because they strongly believe that they are to be judged by God. Whereas with cremation it would be so that no one would be allowed to die and not be able to choose where they would go after death. It also directly indicates that they are able to go to heaven, which is certainly a denial to them.

Spain is also a European country, and the funeral system is even more unbelievable. They actually insure funerals, which is indeed unheard of. That's why the funeral industry in Spain is booming and those contractors can make a lot of money out of it. And to the Spaniards, this kind of insured behavior is a very normal thing, and it is also beneficial to themselves. It's of the same nature as our other social insurance.

Recently, in the European region, there was a serious outbreak in Italy that triggered many deaths. And according to their custom, it is to be cremated. So the number of people they were waiting to be cremated was extraordinarily high, and the funeral parlors simply couldn't accommodate so many coffins. So they all moved the coffins into the church for display. It's a really heartbreaking thing, and I hope it gets better soon.
