Yes.
Remember that up until Italy was unified in 1870 towns like Florens or Venice were states in their own.

Is there a rule about whether the adjective comes before or after the noun? I put it after which was accepted but i see their correct answer puts it before.

What's the difference between "nel piccolo paese" and "in un piccolo paese". Why is the first one wrong?

NEL = IN + IL... "nel piccolo paese" would translate "in the small country".
Maybe you should check a bit "preposizioni articolate" in Italian, when you feel ready for them!

it's villaggio, with i between g and o.. but villaggio is not paese... villaggio is something in the middle of nowhere (or sometimes a touristic place), paese is a little city

I agree. This lesson is first time I have had 'paese' and the meaning given was town not country so how does one know to translate it as country here?
