- W2482809059 abstract "In October 1860, a plebiscite was held to decide on the annexation to the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the Sicilians voted en masse for unification under the Piedmontese rulers. This was caused, however, by a great misunderstanding, which led rapidly to a still greater disillusionment. The needs of the various social groups were many but diverse; for example, the island farmers wanted land distribution whilst the nobles wanted the reinstatement of the 1812 Constitution. The new rulers, who knew Sicily only through the accounts of travellers, believed the island to be rich. The legislation of the Kingdom of Savoy was extended to Sicily and many of these new laws were seen as grave injustices, especially obligatory military service, the reinstatement of the tax on the grinding of corn, and the land tax. Tobacco could no longer be cultivated; the protectionist tariffs on cotton and linen and textiles were annulled, causing the textile trade to be severely weakened by foreign competition. The new Savoy government began to be regarded as an enemy. The bad feeling generated by unification was, in any case, reciprocal. During the outbreak of cholera, which claimed some 53,000 victims in Sicily between October 1866 and August 1867, rumours abounded that the plague spreaders were government agents working to increase the income of the government through the inheritance tax." @default.
