French Revolution & Napoleon (Grey History) 1.106 Piedmont-Sardinia with Christopher Storrs
Wedged between France and Austria, Piedmont-Sardinia is one of the most overlooked powers of the French Revolutionary Wars. Best remembered for unifying Italy in the 19th century, this episode unpacks the kingdom's early success and unique composition. Along the way, we touch on Admiral Nelson, the Polish Partition, and debates regarding the memory of Italian unification.
Thank you to Dr Christopher Storrs for making this episode possible.
