Kingdom Of Sardinia-Piedmont


 * Government Unlike other players, the population of Sardinia is content with the monarchy, King Charles Albert uses propaganda to sow seeds of support for a Sardinian lead North Italian Federation, and possibly even a United Italy under the Sardinian Government. The main issue is Austria, however. Sardinia desires to own Parma, Milan and Modena, as well as to be allowed to expand freely into Tuscany, but it also wants to cozy up to powers like Prussia and Austria to protect and further its own interest. Sardinia siezes it's chance after a sudden economic boom (see below) and offers not only to buy Parma and Modena off of Austria, but also asks to be added as a third member of the Austro-Prussian alliance. Not wanting to overextend itself, the military doesn't increase all to much, but propaganda certainly inspires many to join the Sardinian ranks.


 * Analytics Turin remains the capital, and, wanting to maintain a sense of unity, no real centralisation takes place. After many press advertisements instead encourage people to join the ever growing workforce as well as exports surging due to industrialisation, the economy begins to explode, this is great in the short term but much administrative work is needed to ensure inflation or corruption does not succeed it.

 * Military

2,000 cavalry, but 30,000 soldiers are acting as ground forces. The navy is laughable with a total of 19 ships. Fort Savoia is constructed west of Savoy, Sardinia worries that French ambitions may overlap its own.


 * Diplomacy


 * We ask to join the Austro Prussian alliance
 * We ask to buy Parma and Modena off Austria
 * We improve relations with Britain, France and Prussia
 * We ask Tuscany to join us to create "The Confederation of Northern Italian States", Charles Albert will be the ruling monarch, but Tuscany will be treated as an equal partner in a union.
