The Carabinieri are the national gendarmerie of Italy, who primarily carry out domestic and foreign policing duties and are one of the country's main law enforcement agencies, alongside the Polizia di Stato and the Guardia di Finanza. Unlike the Polizia di Stato they are a military force, the fourth branch of the Italian Armed Forces since 2000, and they come under the Ministry of Defence while depending functionally on the Ministry of the Interior for public order and security. The corps was created by King Victor Emmanuel I of Sardinia as the Royal Carabinieri Corps under the Royal Patents of 13 July 1814, and it was appointed the First Force of the new national military organization during Italian unification. Its command is located in Rome. It is recorded here as a criminal justice institution, and the Carabinieri Art Squad is one of its specialist branches.
