Editing Spaghetti (section)

===Origin===
Some historians think that Arabs introduced pasta to Europe during a conquest of [[Sicily]]. In the West, it may have first been worked into long, thin forms in Sicily around the 12th century, as the ''[[Tabula Rogeriana]]'' of [[Muhammad al-Idrisi]] attested, reporting some traditions about the [[Kingdom of Sicily]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theatlantic.com/doc/198607/pasta|title=Pasta|first=Corby |last=Kummer|date=1 July 1986|work=The Atlantic}}</ref>

The popularity of spaghetti spread throughout Italy after the establishment of spaghetti factories in the 19th century, enabling the mass production of spaghetti for the Italian market.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Whiteman|first1=Kate |last2=Boggiano|first2=Angela |last3=Wright|first3=Jeni |title=The Italian kitchen bible|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vgjwEGFNYoQC|year=2007|publisher=Hermes House|isbn=978-1-84038-875-6|pages=12–13}}</ref>
