June 2nd is the date of birth of the Italian Republic. In 1946, 86 years after the unification of Italy under the House of Savoy, the Italian people, with a referendum, chose the republic instead of monarchy.Local ceremonies usually start with a jump of paratroopers flying the Italian flag and some other standards, like this one with the coat of arms of the “Carabinieri”.Here we can see a huge standard of the Folgore Parachute Brigade, whose headquarters is in Livorno.The standard of the 1st Regiment Carabinieri Tuscania, also based in Livorno.
