SARDINIA


Sardinia is a large island in the western Mediterranean, south of Corsica. Before the unification of Italy,
the Kingdom of Sardinia was the name applied to a union of Sardinia and Piedmont, although the island was
very much the junior partner. Stamps of this state were issued in Turin 1851 - 1862 but the country's name
is not shown. Gibbons list these stamps under Sardinia, which is strictly correct, but historians generally
refer to the state as Piedmont. To prevent confusion between the 19th century state and the present island
province, this work has Piedmont as the specific entry and Sardinia as a minor entry.
