Whither Italy?

[fbaker4]

Ok - don't tell me, please!

But I'm trying to unify italy. At what year do I know that the events have passed me by? If it's 1870 did I miss it? 1880? 1900?

Round numbers, please, and don't ruin my surprises! I hope the see the events as scripted, unfold.

Just want to know when I've missed it.

AFAIK Italy can be formed at any date after a certain year (1858 I think), so no need to worry.

great, tahnks. I'm slowly buying provinces from Austria, and have a few small elements to deal with, but Modena will Triumph!

ViP allows Italy to be formed if Sardinia or Two Scilies manages to defeat Austria during the 1848 revolution.

I'm playing the Mac based Ricky; It took me a while, but I'm in the 1880's and I finally got it.

Currently playing a game as Italy, and I formed it in 1838-39. It seems if you are the Two Sicilies, the Papal State, or Sardinia Piedmont, and currently occupy [As in either annex, or captured in a war] all the Italian minors' capitals [Roma, Napoli, Firenze, Massa, Lucca, Modena, Parma and Torino an even will fire that makes you Italy proper. A few days later you should get an internal event to give you both Italian culture types, and eventually the option to change your capital to Roma.

This is using Vicky + Ricky and the hotfixes.

You are correct. But you do not need to annex or capture in a war those provinces, only occupy them. That doesn't work for any of the Italiuan minors though, they cannot form Italy, iirc.
