Like all exported recipes, it’s regional. It’s like how American pizza is quite different from Italy. But true pizza isn’t the #1 food in the world, now is it? I mean American pizza probably isn’t either when other cuisines win by shear population by who’s counting
Calzones and stromboli share several the same fillings, including cured meats and veggies. And while both have Italian cheese, calzones are made with ricotta (often alongside mozzarella and/or Parmesan) while stromboli are typically only made with mozzarella. Calzones’ fillings do not include sauce; marinara is served on the side for dipping. Stromboli portions can also be dipped, but they can also be baked with the sauce inside.
This source also specifies strombolis are a different shape, and tbh at one time that was true, but I think that practice has mostly died out and the shape of the two is now often “the same” but dependant on location. The sauce v ricotta situation however is nonnegotiable and places that swap them are wrong.

I’m not done eating the last batch of pizza rolls that Mr Plinkette mailed me.
Your thinking of a dish that is toppings on top of cheese red sauce and bread.
