Italy (Washington Shot at Murdering Town!)

Italy
Italy's heads of state rule as a council. Descisions require a qualified-majority vote (8/12). The Council's members are as follows:
 * Kingdom of Sardinia-Piedmont
 * Grand Duchy of Tuscany
 * Duchy of Milan
 * Duchy of Modena
 * Duchy of Parma
 * Principality of Monaco
 * Republic of San Marino
 * Duchy of Venice
 * Republic of Genoa
 * Republic of Ancona
 * Republic of Umbria
 * Duchy of Ferrara

The President (the Duke of Milan) casts the deciding vote in the event of a tie.
