Italian National Unity and Armed Forces Day Event
The history of this day
On November 3, 1918, Austria-Hungary capitulated in World War I, its territorial concessions allowing Italy to complete its reunification that began way back in the middle of the XIX century.
So, November 4, the day that the armistice went into effect, is celebrated as National Unity and Armed Forces Day. Italians celebrated it before Mussolini’s rise to power, during his premiership, and after, where it’s the only holiday to have remained in effect for the past century.
Event Details
In this event, you must play three battles using Italian vehicles; these must be rank III or higher, with an activity of not less than 70%, to receive the “The Heart of Italy” decal.
