Happy 150th Anniversary of the unification of Italy

In 1861, after the wars waged against the Austrians and once the Garibaldi expedition to Sicily was completed, the long period of political and military fights leading Italy to unification was over. On the 17th March of that year the national unity was proclaimed in Torino, which became the first capital city of Italy.

During the Risorgimento (The Resurgence), the city took in the exiles from all over the country. They had developed a common unitarian aspiration and here they designed the political strategy that would result into the unification of the country. Therefore, the new history of Italy, indipendent and united, initiated from Torino on the 17th March one and a half century ago. The city would be the capital for four years until 1865, when the centrality of the Government of the Kingdom moved to Florence. Rome became the final capital city, from 1871, when the unification of the country was fully completed.

Go go go!! Giro d'Italia - Stage 12

Today the cycling Tour of Italy start from my little city! take a look at Città Sant'Angelo.

20 May 2010 / Stage 12: Citta Sant'Angelo - Porto Recanati 206 km

With the route now taking the peloton north there will be a feeling among the riders that they are finally heading for home, but there remains well over a third of the race still to go. After the rolling roads of inland Abruzzo, today the riders take a long flat road up the coast for 100km before heading inland and completing a loop and finishing in the coastal town of Porto-Recanati. A flat day with little to trouble the riders, a short, sharp climb 11km from the end might encourage an attack, but the probability is we will see the third bunch sprint of the week.
