Parma. The term '7 Sisters' was coined sometime in the 90s and it was during this period where Parma was effectively an Italian & European powerhouse.

Not that I know if, this is the first time that I've heard that name. Serie A actually used to be a lot more fun to me when the seven sisters were more evenly matched.

Yeh definitely Gaetan I agree, although I suppose it is beneficial for us as Inter fans that there is more of a class division now. The main reason for the crumble of Parma and Fiorentina particularly is that they overspent and ran into financial difficulty.

Don't forget Roma and Lazio did the same thing.
