I was there once and I was not impressed. Care of the swords and polerarms was poor, and there was quite some fumbling. However I remember to have read a title (maybe an article) on that collection.

The one museum that has some interesting stuff on Italian unification is the Stibbert in Florence. Stibbert himself fought in those wars.

IIRC, Spain sent a military unit to help the Pope.
