Talk:Administrative subdivisions of the Papal States from 1816 to 1870

Major changes

I once moved this article from its original title ("Papal Legations") to a new title ("Legation of Romagna"), but this was reverted. I think the current article, based on the Italian Wiki, is the best solution. The territory known in the context of the 19th century as the Papal Legations was not created in 1592 like the previous infobox said. Likewise, the territory of the Papal State annexed to Sardinia in 1860 was not the old Legations (plural), but rather the new Legation (singular) of the Romagne (plural of Romagna, but I'm not sure how often it is used in English) created out of the old four legations. The legations themselves were the same thing as the delegations, just governed by cardinals. I think the present article is more illuminating and more correct than any article on the "Papal Legations" could be. Srnec (talk) 02:06, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

Second class members

Should it be 1 and 2, or 2 and 1?

In those of the second class, there were three members: two from the capital and two from the hinterland
