The south of Italy was part of the Kingdom of Sicily in medieval times. When the french king of Sicily lost the island of Sicily in a revolt, he didn't stop calling his realm Kingdom of Sicily. But the new owner of the island, the King of Aragon, called himself King of Sicily and his new realm Kingdom of Sicily too. So there was two Sicilies: Sicily proper and Naples.

And there I was just assuming Italians were retarded
Thanks for the information sounds more interesting that I imagined
I still think calling it 2 sicilies is fucking retarded tho
>>1205556
They probably kept calling it "of the two Sicilies" because it sounds more fancy than Naples-Sicily.

I've read at least one alternate-history book (Look to the West, on the AlternateHistory forums) where a Kingdom of <i>Three</i> Sicilies (Naples, Sicily, and Aragon) existed.

Maybe it means monarchy in a "hereditary leadership" way, so you have all the families in the society represented by a member of the family decided by royal succession?
fuck, I dunno. I tried to figure out a way it could make sense.
