| | Palermo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Sicily's unification ( 1734) with the Bourbon -ruled kingdom of Naples as the kingdom of the Two Sicilies inflicted a devastating blow on the elite of Palermo, as the city was reduced to just another provincial city, the royal court residing in Naples. |  | | It was a period of prosperity and tolerance, as Christians and Jews were allowed to live in peace. |  | | Being the city in which the Italian Mafia historically had its main interests, it has also been the place of several recent well-publicized murders. |
