The political structure of the Italian kingdom in the 70s of the 19th century.

Based on the fact that there was a kingdom in Italy then, it is worth noting that it was a constitutional monarchy. The monarch in this case combined a representative of the executive and legislative branches of government. The parliament, which in the 70s of the 19th century was in Italy, was bicameral. The upper house, as was often the case in Europe, had the name of the Senate and its representatives were privileged, because they were appointed personally by the king. The lower house was elective and was elected on the basis of general elections.
