The ruler was an Italian princely house.
- In the year 1858, Italy was split into seven states, with the Austrian Habsburgs in charge of the north, the Pope in charge of the centre, and Spain in charge of the south.
- Sardinia-Piedmont was the only state controlled by an Italian noble house. The Italian language, too, lacked a standard form and was rife with regional and local variances.
- People in these territories, with the exception of Sardinia would not have considered themselves Italians. It was the first territory to join united Italy next to the Northern states.
