Conservative Catholics (Italy)
The Conservative Catholics (Italian: Cattolici Conservatori) were a right-wing conservative political party in Italy, composed by strong conservatives and clericalists. == History == A right-wing group of Catholic, conservative, reactionary, legitimist, and anti-liberal inspiration had formed within the Subalpine Parliament of the Kingdom of Sardinia during the so-called "decade of preparation" (the 1850s), in which Camillo Benso di Cavour and his governments prepared for the Second War of Independence and Italian unification by enacting firm secularist and anti-clerical measures aimed at reducing the Church’s social influence in Piedmont and indirectly undermining the Papal States.
