During the Italian Wars of Unification, the Papal states raised an armed force to defend itself from the fear of radicalism, or probably loss of revenue from lands lost.
Now, as a part of Canadian military history, the unit raised was recruited from Catholics in Lower Canada.
As such the unit has a very special place in the history of Quebec.
As the uniform is similar to what American civil war figures look like, I have been able to paint up a small section including an officer
The uniform is basically grey with red highlights. The headgear is a kipi.
So yet another unit to add to the table.
