i love this map and this font, but i might want to put in a compass needle reminding the viewer that it's slightly rotated from true north.Lollipop (talk) 06:26, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This map is fundamentally wrong. In 1796 Sicily and the South of Italy were not one and the same kingdom, and were not denominated Kingdom of Sicily. This denomination corresponded only to the island of Sicily with all the minor surrounding islands and the Maltese archipelago. Even if the two kingdoms shared the same king ("personal union"), they will remain distinct entities until the 9th of December 1816, when King Ferdinand (IV of Naples and III of Sicily) unifies the kingdoms and becomes Ferdinand I of the Two Sicilies.
