On July 29, 1900 King Umberto of Italy is shot and killed at the age of 56 leaving Italy to his son, Victor Emmanuel III. But what if he survived? While Franco-Italian relations vastly improved after the fall of Crispi, Umberto remained faithful to the Triple Alliance
His son allowed the improvement in French relations to continue and eventually double crosses the Triple Alliance in WWI- but would Umberto remain faithful to that alliance? Would he have plunged Italy into the Ottoman War?
On a side note- Leon Czolgosz claimed that Umberto's assassination inspired him to kill William McKinley so two of the more important assassinations of the early 1900's could get butterflied together
No Teddy Roosevelt certainly changes America
