Italian Republic

Italy, officially known as the Italian Republic founded by GiulianoEmiliani, is a fallen ancient ro-nation in southern Europe. Its former population was 29,110 people in old group, now over 700 people in new group. The current (in-exile) administration are the Sovereign Protector (CapColton), the President (aexult), the Prime Minister (bostonman18), and The Council. Currently, they're considered as a de facto recognized government-in-exile ro-nation group since 2017.

The Italian Republic, at its peak in 2014, was a powerful and founding ro-nation member that have heavily influenced across the ro-nation community; inspired thousands of people to establish their own ro-nation groups or build their own cities after Rome 2.0 being featured twice in the ROBLOX Blog back in 2012. It was housed over 23,000 people and much of the departments are filled with hundred of people. During the Ronation's Golden Age (2012-2015), much of the activities mainly come from Rome mainly due to the constant internal conflicts between departments, essentially created Rome as a warzone rather than as a city. Even there was an constant internal conflict in the Council as well and some of them proposed to impeach another council member simply because they don't like each others.

Downfall of Italy (2015-2017)

After the Thanksgiving War of 2015 against Russia, Italian influences have finally ended and many internal conflicts have occurred led to the most disunited ronation group the community have ever seen and most likely won't be seen again for a while. GiulianoEmiliani tried fixing them by providing updated equipments, better places, and rules. It did little help but ultimately, the departments still won't work togethers 100% (Top would be 60%). GiulianoEmiliani also worked hard rebuilding new Rome 5 with his team for almost a year until GiulianoEmiliani decided to give up on Italian Republic and sold the whole groups to SquirrelByte, commonly known as Jay to the Italian veterans.

During first 2 months under SquirrelByte, most of the Italian members were fine with the new owner and new leaderships, until one day, SquirrelByte started firing most important & contributor members from any of the positions in Italian Republic. This was the second "Purge" and, to most Italian veterans, it was the most grave mistake SquirrelByte ever made. The exiled Italian veterans decided to create a new Italian Republic, as a government-in-exile ro-nation group under President Intelligenzxa, later stylized himself as 5th Il Duce.

New Recognition (2017)

Almost all of the exiled Italian veterans sought to topple SquirrelByte and Neptune off of the leaderships of the original Italian Republic in order to gain recognition of the newly created Government-in-Exile Italian Republic. GiulinaoEmiliani, for the first time since 2015, appeared in game to express his support to the Government-in-Exile Italian Republic and donated thousands of robux to them. President Intelligenzxa managed to rally 30 ITAF soldiers and 6 allied troops to raid against original Italian Republic, this was the first time ITAF managed to reach more than 10 and 20 soldiers to rally in the same place since 2014.

The Final Battle for Italy was thought it would be the most intense, violent conflict the community has ever to seen only to meet a single godded Minister of Defense resisting against over 30 raiders, mostly consisted of Intelligenzxa's ITAFs. Neptune publicly told Government-in-Exile Italian Republic members that he don't recognize them and refused to even defend his ro-nation. This was the biggest shock among the Ro-Nation community and Neptune received a backlash by being replaced with Government-in-Exile Italian Republic group. After a month of the Government-in-Exile's victory, SquirrelByte announced to shutdown original Italian Republic and left ROBLOX, further securing Government-in-Exile's position permanently.

This is the first time a new Italian Republic group ever beat the original Italian Republic group and it's only done by the Italian veterans rather than by the new people.

New Age (2017-Present)

After the original Italian Republic's defeat, President Intelligenzxa proclaimed himself as the 5th Il Duce of Italy and worked on the Rome 5 to continue GiulianoEmiliani's legacy. However, it ended up being rushed probably because of the Intelligenzxa's impatient. The Rome 5 flopped big time and already put themselves in a crisis. After few months after that, Intelligenzxa decided to give up Italian Republic to Rossi (known as Maxime or Stewart) and he decided to develop new Rome. But it took him 6 months until May 2018, he tried to pull Italian Republic into Cold War era. But it met with a big backlash among the members and Rossi ultimately decided to give up Italian Republic group, giving it to XenoSynthesis but given to CapColton immediately after.

CapColton immediately put Italian Republic into hiatus state and banned deadline and leaks, instating No-Hype Policy in order to allow Italian Developer Team to be able to complete places properly and timely matter. As a result, Italian Republic is finally united and the Italian Developer Team is finally stabilized after years of problematic situations. As of August 2019, new Ragusa, Sicily is released with all-new gun script zcole made. And Venice is said to be close to completion.
