I wonder if "former states" would be a better title than "former countries". From one point of view, Italy was a "country" or a "nation" before there was any unified government of all of Italy. Michael Hardy18:01, 25 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

This category is wrongly named. Italian Peninsula does not contain the North Italy, Sardina, Malta, Corsica, and Sardinia, all contained in the Italian Geographic region. Futhermore there were many fomer italian states outside Italy, mainly in Dalmatia, such us the Republic of Ragusa--Giovanni Giove22:42, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
Republic of Ragusa was geographically located in the Balkans, thus "Category:Former countries in the Balkans" applies. This is only a geographic category. --Thewanderer00:30, 19 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
