 FRANCIS II. OF THE TWO SICILIES - LoveToKnow Article on FRANCIS II. OF THE TWO SICILIES
Francis, after long hesitations and even an appeal to Garibaldi himself, left Naples (6th of September) with his wife Maria Sophia, the court, the diplomatic corps (the French and English ministers excepted), and went by sea to Gaeta, where a large part of the army was concentrated.
These events at last frightened Francis into granting a constitution, but its promulgation was followed by disorders in Naples and the resignation of ministers, and Liborio Romano became head of the government.
Both Francis and Maria Sophia behaved with great coolness and courage, and even when the French fleet, whose presence had hitherto prevented an attack by sea, was withdrawn, they still resisted; it was not until the 12th of February I86i that the fortress capitulated.

The elevation of Charles of Spain to Holy Roman Emperor, a position that Francis had desired, led to a collapse of relations between France and the Habsburgs.
The inconclusive third war between Charles and Francis began with the death of Francesco Maria Sforza, the duke of Milan.

 Princess Maria Carolina of the Two Sicilies - Best of Sicily Magazine - Constantinian Order of St George - Carlo Duke of Calabria - Ferdinando Duke of Castro - Camilla Duchess of Calabria - Sicilian Royalty
She is the first Sicilian royal princess born in Italy since the House of Bourbon of the Two Sicilies was exiled following the annexation of the Kingdom of Naples and Sicily to the Kingdom of Italy in 1861.
The Bourbons of Naples, who lived in exile from early 1861 until July 1943, when Allied troops liberated Sicily from Fascism and the House of Savoy (its own dynastic heads unjustly exiled from 1946 until 2002), ruled Sicily from Naples from 1734 until 1860.
Two of the family's palaces, the Chinese Palace in Palermo (in the lush royal park known as the "Favorita") and the Ficuzza hunting lodge in a forest near Corleone, both built around 1800 when Ferdinando I and Marie Caroline were here, are lasting testaments to the dynasty's presence in Sicily.
