Pizzas originated in Italy, though they have since spread all around the world, becoming one of the most popular fast food items, and most of them consist of a flattened base of leavened wheat dough on which tomatoes, cheese and other ingredients are added. The simplest pizza is the margherita, which is just cheese and tomato as well as some herbs.
Not every pizza is on a flattened base. The calzone, for instance, is a folded pizza, and there are other types such as the deep-dish pizza which is commonly associated with Chicago. The traditional Neapolitan pizza is the origin of the New York-style pizza; that and Chicago being the two primary types of American pizza. Other ingredients to make the base have been used as well, not just wheat dough.
A pizza party isn't a way of cooking a pizza; it's a way of eating eat. One that just requires a number of pizzas and a number of people to eat them in its most basic form.
