The history of Italian unification, the emergence of the sentiment of irredentism, and how it was used by fascism during the 20th century.
Savoy and Nice were not Genoese. Piedmont ceded them to France in exchange of French help in defeating the Austrians ti gain Lombardy and Veneto
You are right - They were part of the Kingdom of Sardinia (which was ruled by the House of Savoy), but never part of Genoa. I've corrected it in the article.
Thanks!
Thanks for this. Perfect timing for me after a holiday in Sicily. The 1843 map is particularly useful.
Sicily is an extremely underrated destination for a trip. Culture, food, nature… it has everything you can ask for. I truly hope you enjoyed it!
