Italy exists since Middle Age, not since 1861. It wasn’t a unified nation but it was recognized as a cultural entity by all Italian intellectuals since Dante, and most of them dreamed a unified Italy, but there was not a political will.Italy didn’t switch side in WWs. In the WWI, the Triple Alliance had a defensive nature, and Italy was initially neutral, so it didn’t switch side at all; in WWII, Allied Invasion caused a Civil War: Fascism Opponents took the Allied side, Fascists remained true to the Axis. via /r/HistoryMemes http://bit.ly/2IfqnS0
