Italy Kingdom Proclaimed

1860: Since the fall of the Roman Empire Italy was broken up into pieces with many of those pieces controlled by outsiders.  There had been bright periods, such as the Renaissance and the influence of Florence but even then, disunity and foreign invasion – until now, in 1860.  With heroes such as Garibaldi and help from Napoleon III Italy was finally united under one government.  This series tells that story.
