Hello all, I'm relatively new to ETW, hence this is probably a pretty standard query, but...
Can anybody give me any advice in playing the Italian States? Opening moves, italian unification. You know, that stuff. I always seem to go bankrupt, no matter how much money i save. I'd also appreciate a guide, or link to a guide if there is one, to turning Italy into a republic not ruled by the pope, sorry I know this has probably been asked before too. Anyways...

Thanks in advance guys.
