Umm ... but you said: "it says that it can't find default.nav.gz."
This won't become better only by running Map. Did you set FG_ROOT?
This isn't required, but I always recommend to explicitly set FG_ROOT
(and FG_SCENERY if it differs from $FG_ROOT/Scenery). Many of the programs
that are in some way related to fgfs use these environment variables.
Most of my scripts do. :-)

You may want to replace the "austria()" function by "italy()". This makes
sure that Austria is at higher resolustion, just like the bay area.

Maps? None. But you probably mean scenery tiles. Only *parts* of w130n30 are
in the base package. You may want to install the rest of w130n30, too.
Here it is a good idea to put it into a separate directory, let's say
$FG_ROOT/WorldScenery/Terrain/ and to add this path to $FG_SCENERY:

  export FG_SCENERY=$FG_ROOT/Scenery:$FG_ROOT/WorldScenery
  # note: the scenery is in a Terrain/ subdir, but this is used automatically

Scenery can be found here: 
http://www.flightgear.org/Downloads/scenery-0.9.8.html
You may also want to put additional objects from http://fgfsdb.stockill.org/
into $FG_SCENERY/WorldScenery/Objects/. There are some for Italy in the 
database,
such as the tower of PISA.
