The House of Savoy is a royal dynasty that was established in 1003 in the historical Savoy region. Through gradual expansion, the family grew in power from ruling a small Alpine county north-west of Italy to absolute rule of the Kingdom of Sicily in 1713 to 1720, when they were handed the island of Sardinia, over which they would exercise direct rule from then onward. Through its junior branch of Savoy-Carignano, the House of Savoy led the unification of Italy in 1861 and ruled the Kingdom of Italy from 1861 until 1946; they also briefly ruled the Kingdom of Spain in the 19th century. The Savoyard kings of Italy were Victor Emmanuel II, Umberto I, Victor Emmanuel III, and Umberto II, all members of the Order of the Golden Fleece, who were involved in the Carbonari conspiracy connected to the Palladian Rite, to create the Kingdom of Italy. The Palladian Rite was headed by Guissepe Mazini, purported successor to Adam Weishaupt as head of the Illuminati, along with Albert Pike and Otto von Bismark. Victor Emmanuel II, as reported by Jacques-Cretineau Joly in 1859 from documents purportedly communicated to him by Pope Gregory XVII, belonged to an Italian secret society, the Alta Vendita, representing the highest lodge of the Carbonari and a reincarnation of the Illuminati. According to the Permanent Instructions of the Alta Vendita: “Ever since we have established ourselves as a body of action, and that order has commenced to reign in the bosom of the most distant lodge, as in that one nearest the centre of action, there is one thought which has profoundly occupied the men who aspire to universal regeneration. That is the thought of the enfranchisement of Italy, from which must one day come the enfranchisement of the entire world, the fraternal republic, and the harmony of humanity.”
