The Kingdom of Italy (Italian: Regno d'Italia) is a state forged in 1861 by the unification of Italy under the influence of the Kingdom of Sardinia. The Kingdom is the first Italian state to include the entire Italian Peninsula since the fall of the Roman Empire.

The National Fascist Party under Benito Mussolini took power in 1922. Since Mussolini's death in the 1959, Alfonso Graziani, son of former Defence Minister Rodolfo Graziani, was elected Prime Minister. Graziani later stepped down from his position in 1985 and Luca Romagnoli held the position until 1991, when Alessandra Mussolini, granddaughter of Il Duce came to power.

The kingdom is often called by nationalists and Fascists the "Italian Empire" (Italian: Impero Italiano) or the "New Roman Empire" (Italian: Nuovo Impero Romano, Latin: Novum Imperium Romanum), but these were not used officially. The name often given by historians to the Kingdom of Italy is Fascist Italy.
