    I am 50% Sicilian highlander. They're not as fierce as the Gheg kind though.

    The brigands who fought against the Italian/Piemontese forces pre and post-unification usually came from the mountainous areas of southern Italy. Same with the partisans in WWII, except that was more central/north central Italy. So kind of?

    My mother's side all came from areas in the Apennines (Lazio and Campania).

    Default Gennargentu [Sardinia]

    Gennargentu (IPA: [dʒennarˈdʒɛntu]) is a large massif in central-southern Sardinia, Italy, encompassing the provinces of Nuoro and Ogliastra. It includes the highest peaks in the island, such as Punta La Marmora (1,834 m),Monte Spada (1,595 m), Punta Erba Irdes (1,676 m),Bruncu Spina (1,829 m) and Punta Paulinu (1,792 m).
    The range forms part of the Gennargentu National Park. Geologically, its rocks are amongst the oldest in Europe, and have therefore a mild shape: rock types include schist,limestone and granite.

    The etymology of toponymy Gennargentu isn't attested, it could mean Door of Silver (Sardinian language: jenna de argentu), Door of the Wind (Sardinian language: Jenna de bentu) or Door of absinthium.

    My Italian ancestors come from an old mountain town in the region of Calabria. Geographically you can call that area highlands.
