Statuto Albertino

1848 · 19th century · Also known as Albertine Statute

The Statuto Albertino was the constitution granted by King Charles Albert of Sardinia in March 1848. It created a parliament with an elected chamber and an appointed senate while leaving the king wide powers. After unification in 1861 it became the constitution of the Kingdom of Italy, and it remained formally in force, though hollowed out under Fascism, until the republican constitution of 1948.
