How do Italians feel being the only major European nation that's never had an empire?
Even the swedes had an empire.

How about the roman empire

>le Italians are not Romans maymay!
>>52314442
How was that Italian?
It's like saying the British Empire was Indian. Just because the Italian peninsula was part of it, doesn't make the Roman empire Italian.
But we did
All the rape, none the guilt
Unlike Australia :^)
good thread

>Kiwi education
they had Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia, Libya, some islands in the Aegean Sea, Chinese concessions, etc.

Do you know what the word roman means?
Shitty bait desu
>>52314405
>Italians
>Never had a Empire
Now, I agree that modern day Italians are just as Roman as any other European nationality that claims to be Roman, but it's undeniable that the Romans lived in Italy and identified as Italian to a extent.
But they did. It was shitty, weak and backwards but still an empire

It's weak banter, not even worth to reply to. Remind him of how they got keked by introducing Maori language in their school curricula and carry on, ameribro

Italy had an Empire though
>>52314541
Sounds more like a country than an empire. The "concessions" were granted because of work by Anglo-Franco forces. The rest were just the left overs that they lost within a decade or two. Not an empire.
>>52314544
It means Roman, not Italian.
>>52314551
They conquered the Italian peninsula, there was no concept of "Italy".
>>52314608
I've never learned Maori in school

>implying Italy isn't aeme count
actual facts vs kiwis opinion
mhhhhhh....who should i trust?
I don't get it
Kingdom of Sardinia and Piedmont and Kingdom of Two Sicilies= Empire of Italy
>>52314746
Too bad Maori is official language in your country. Being an ignorant =/= not being keked

Thank you. I made this thread to get an Italian mad and disprove the other thread. You can now let this die, it has served its purpose.

It's still an empire you moron
Italy unified late so obviously the empire didn't have a chance to become big. But it's still an empire.
Specifically it was a colonial empire
