The celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy can help to rediscover the value of identity national daily fights of the last two decades have weakened a lot. But it also represents a unique opportunity to uncover the facts and circumstances of the Risorgimento, unfortunately, known only to a few local fans, but which deserve wider dissemination.
Sometimes it seems that our country has no history, but only enough for a study of the toponymy eufemiese understand where we are, what we were and how much we loved the freedom. Carl Muscari, one of the 15 executed in Calabria Piazza Mercato in Naples March 6, 1800, the fall of the Neapolitan Republic, Ferdinando Grimaldi De Angelis, skipper of the Sicilian-Calabrian Third Division during the riots of 1848, sentenced to death by the court Bourbon; Pentimalli Francis sentenced to 19 years for the same events. Eufemiesi three major, three-way, but almost three unknown martyrs of freedom. As well as sentenced to thirty three to nineteen years for the uprisings that are not mentioned even with a tiny plaque.
The fact that nobody has ever thought is not a good sign. The beautiful pages of our history should be remembered, but to cultivate the memory and bring the younger generation to study the roots also need the commitment of the institutions. The creation of a historical city, just to give a concrete example, providing access to many documents (also viewed only at the state archives of Reggio Calabria) that are "kept" in our town, buried under the dust in the basement of City Hall.
