>fights multiple wars against the pope
>country literally wouldn't exist if you hadn't done this because they wouldn't let you be a unified people otherwise
>still slaves to him, pays him loads of money annually, collects taxes on his behalf
someone explain this mentality to me, this is like if Zelensky was publically still pro-russian after the russian invasion, it makes 0 sense. Either you think the pope is the greatest in which case you straight up give up your country to him to get annexed or you don't think that and then you'd stop paying him for magic good fortune spells?
How do italians justify collecting a religion tax and sending money to the vatican when the only reason it's "the vatican" and not "the papal state" is because they fought a war against italy and lost?
