In Italy, Monarchy = Savoy = Fascism = Racial Laws = II World War = ...

In Italy some monarchist movements exist, but without great following.

In Italy, official historiography teaches us that King Umberto II has abdicated in 1946, and the republic was legitimally (?) proclaimed; it is known that this version of the fact is not true, because the republic was proclaimed by the government of mr. De Gasperi unilaterally, without the reading of the official results of the referendum by the Court of Cassation.

In Italy, medias continue to call VE and EF the Heirs of King Umberto II and heirs to the Italian Throne, but also they call Amedeo and Aimone as Heirs to the Italian Throne, so a lot of people ignore the possibility of a Monarchy because the situation seems to be not clear.

In Italy, Savoy Family is seen as good only for TV shows, dancing and gossip. No more.
