Kingdom Of Sardinia (Piedmont, House of Savoy).
"Modern Italy became a nation-state during the Risorgimento on March 17, 1861 when most of the states of the Italian Peninsula and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies were united under king Victor Emmanuel II of the House of Savoy, hitherto king of Sardinia, a realm that included Piedmont".
Ten questions about Italy. If you get the right answers to the first nine questions, the initial letter of each answer will spell the answer to the last question.
Each of the quiz questions is answered by naming two states and putting 'and' between them: for example, California and Oregon. I was amazed at how rusty my state geography was. How's yours?
