I like the Grand Duchy of Tuscany under the late Medicis
I like a Borgia run Papal States
I like Anjou Naples, Sicily, Sardinia
I like the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia to ruled by the Hapsburgs
I like a Union of Savoy and Genoa plus Corsica.

And lots of other city states.

I've always been fascinated by an Italy that was "unified" without Sicily, sort of like how Austria was left out of German unification.

Either that or a Roman Republic-wank.

I accidentally voted Pre-Unitary instead of Alternate History Italy that I intended to, so to be accurate you need to switch a vote from one to the other.

Too may choices to choose from. A Vsiconti-ruled Milan dominating northern Italy between Savoy and Venice, a northern Italy where Frederick II pacified the rebel Lombard cities and it's a part of a centralising Holy Roman Empire, or a Habsburg dominated northern Italy from Maria Theresa marrying Charles Emmanuel III of Savoy instead of Francis III of Lorraine to create the House of Habsburg-Savoy and hoovering up the region over time. Of the three a House of Habsburg-Savoy ruled northern Italy just beats the other two though.
