The Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia (whose main territory was in fact the region of Piedmont) was the only Italian state that was a liberal constitutional monarchy since 1848. The regions of Lombardy and Veneto were annexed by Austria following the Napoleonic Wars in 1815. In North-Central Italy, there were three duchies of Parma, Modena, and Tuscany. They were ruled by branches of Habsburg and Bourbon dynasties and were closely allied with Austria. Most of Central Italy belonged to the Papal State ruled by the Pope of the Catholic Church. Southern Italy formed a single state known as the Kingdom of Two Sicilies. Apart from Piedmont-Sardinia, all those states were absolute monarchies with no constitutions. Then, all of them united with the help of Giuseppe Mazzini, Count Camillo di Cavour, and most importantly Giuseppe Garibaldi.]]> 2022-10-12 14:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/26radercole/ge2boiu0ba2gl838/wish/2337122396
