Italy, officially the Italian Republic, is a sovereign country composed of 20 regions, two of which are oversees and an additional two regions are claimed but not under control. Italy has long been a renowned global center of art, music, literature, cuisine, fashion, science and technology. Italy shares borders with the Fourth French Empire to the west, République Helvétique to the north, Austria to the north, and a maritime border with the UK of Dalmatia and the Sedrosian Empire to the east. It is comprised of the Italian Peninsula to the Alps with numerous islands and two territories in Northern Africa. Italy is a unitary one-party dictatorship under a monarchy with its capital in Rome, the country's largest city and main cultural and political center; other major urban areas include Milan, Turin, Genoa, Venice, Florence, Bologna, Naples, Bari, Catania and Palermo.

The Italian State was founded following the nationalist victory in the 2100-2101 civil war, where nationalists and communists struggled for control over Italy following the collapse of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. Casto Lo Schiavo and his forces backed by France entered Milan and defeated the last communist stronghold and then proclaimed a new state and declared a new government in Rome. In 2106, Casto Lo Schiavo restored King Victor Amadeus V and the House of Savoy to the throne but Lo Schiavo retains his power as prime minister, founding the Kingdom of Italy.

On April 15th 2107, the Italian Revolution happened, launched by republican movements backed by the military and they overthrew King Victor Amadeus V, the entire House of Savoy and the oligarchic government led by dictatorial prime minister Casto Lo Schiavo. King Victor Amadeus V was reported to have fled to France. Meanwhile, Casto Lo Schiavo was captured by German insurgents but was found to have escaped, with his whereabouts unknown. A provisional government was  established composed of military officers, civilian reformists and former bureaucrats who aim to stabilise Italy. They held elections the next month to establish a proper government but Maiorico Friscia and his Unione Nazionale began consolidating power to create a conservative corporatist dictatorship under a republic whilst not becoming fascist or totalitarian. The regime is called the Prima Repubblica (First Republic)
