Francisco de Asís was King of Spain as the consort of Queen Isabella II from their marriage in 1846 until Isabella's deposition in 1868.

The Sicilian revolution of independence of 1848 occurred in a year replete with revolutions and popular revolts. It commenced on 12 January 1848, and therefore was the first of the numerous revolutions to occur that year. Three revolutions against Bourbon rule had previously occurred on the island of Sicily starting from 1800: this final one resulted in an independent state surviving for 16 months. The constitution that survived the 16 months was quite advanced for its time in liberal democratic terms, as was the proposal of an unified Italian confederation of states. It was in effect a curtain raiser to the end of the Bourbon kingdom of the Two Sicilies which was started by Giuseppe Garibaldi's Expedition of the Thousand in 1860 and culminated with the siege of Gaeta of 1860–1861 and with the proclamation of the unified Kingdom of Italy.

The national football team of the Two Sicilies is the football team of the Two Sicilies, which are a territory formed by the southern part of Italy without the Island of Sicily although the name suggests otherwise. The team is controlled by the Regno delle Due Sicilie FA. As the Two Sicilies are not a recognised state they are neither a member of FIFA nor UEFA, and the team therefore is not eligible to enter either the World Cup or European Championship. However, from January 2010, they became a provisional member of the NF-Board. Now the team is a member of ConIFA.
The Royal Navy of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies was the official term in documents of the era for the naval forces of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies - it and the Royal Army together formed the Kingdom's armed forces.

The Bank of the Tavoliere di Puglia (1835-1845) was a bank located in the city of Foggia, in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Its purpose was to foster the development of the so-called Tavoliere delle Puglie, one of the poorest areas of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, but its hidden purpose was probably to defraud Mr. Van-Aken, an investor from Bruxelles who was planning to invest about two million ducats in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies on behalf of Dutch and Belgian bankers.
