This is the flag of the Kingdom of Italy.
I show it here because my ancestors emigrated from the Kingdom
NOT from the current Republic.

The Arms of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies
The arms above are those of the
Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. This Kingdom encompassed all of
southern Italy approximately south of Rome, (the present-day regions
of Abruzzo, Molise, Campania, Puglia, Basilicata, Calabria, and
Sicilia), prior to the unification of Italy in 1860. The
Kingdom's flag was these arms centered on a white field. I show
the arms here because they are hard to find and because my pre-1860s
ancestors were subjects of this Kingdom.
