Summary/Abstract: The Italian State is an early creation. With a history of millennia, the people living in the Italian peninsula have managed to establish a modern state in mid-nineteenth century, compared with other European states (the French state, the English state etc.). This historical process have been known as „Risorgimento”. During this brief study I will present the problems which the state’s founding fathers have experienced in the administrative centralization process in relation with the “ideal modern state pattern”.
