This page is about the data available for this polity, the chronology of the events of the polity is available here.

When the Habsburg ceded Sardinia to the Duke of Savoy in 1720, the Savoyards united it with their historical possessions on the Italian mainland, and the kingdom came to be progressively identified with the Mainland states, which included, besides Savoy and Aosta, dynastic possessions like the Principality of Piedmont and the County of Nice. After annexing most of the small kingdoms of the Italian peninsula, the Kingdom of Sardinia changed its name to the Kingdom of Italy.
