Southern Italy missed nothing.
In the early nineteenth century Italy was a confederation of states, with Sicily being the most prosperous. At the time, Sicily was not composed of just a few islands, but also a large portion of the Italian peninsula. It included Calabria, Lucania, Basilicata, Campania, Puglia, Abruzzi, and Molise. This “southern kingdom” was the richest of all the Italian states.
A relatively unknown Italian politician named Victor Emanuel II, who was king of Sardinia and Piemonte (an “inconsequential military and economic state” according to one Italian historian), aspired to be king of all of Italy. He considered federalism and states’ rights to be the essence of anarchy and wanted to preside over one consolidated glorious Italian union. Garibaldi would become his henchman who forced, at gun and bayonet point, Sicily and the rest of Italy to come under the single, consolidated rule of King Emanuel II. According to the historian S. Ben Piazza, Garibaldi already had the reputation as “an international adventurer and freebooter, better known for his paramilitary forays and terrorism carried out against civilian populations in South America, particularly Brazil and Uruguay.” He was an international mercenary terrorist and, as such, was just the man Lincoln was looking for to be in charge of the entire U.S. Army as it invaded a part of its own country.
Upon conquering Sicily, Garibaldi met with King Victor Emanual II, who promptly seized the vast gold treasury of Sicily. It was one of the biggest looting and plundering sprees in European history. Much of the loot was “shared” in the form of corporate welfare for the Northern Italian, politically-connected business class. This of course was also a hallmark of the Lincoln administration’s Hamiltonian economic policy of “internal improvements,” a euphemism for corporate welfare for railroad, mining, forestry, and other corporations that supported the Republican Party.
Southern Italy was plundered and impoverished by Garibaldi’s exploits, just as the American South was plundered and destroyed economically by war and “reconstruction” at the hands of Lincoln, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, and the rest. As with the American “Civil War heroes,” Garibaldi never accepted responsibility for his actions. Why would he?! Piazza quotes him as saying, years later, that “the outrages and injustices perpetrated against the southern [Italian] people are immense and immeasurable. I do not feel that I was personally responsible, for I have a clear conscience on the matter.” Garabaldi also admitted that he would never do it again, for fear “I would be stoned to death, having engendered nothing but squalor and hate in the process.” It is no mere accident, notes Piazza, that the great migration of Italians to “the new world” in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century came overwhelmingly from the impoverished South.

It's Italy and Spain that Europanized Europe you idiot. And the "non-European" culture of Byzantines Greeks who having fled the massacres of Turks found refugee in the West contributed to the Renaissance of Europe. Note that all of the discoveries start from the time that the Turks captured Byzantium and began massacring the population forcing them to fleeIn Italy, what’s south of Rome was controlled by non-European, non-Western Arabs (Sicily) and Byzantines (Napoli region area). Until Norman masters took over by slaying Greeks and Arabs.
It’s why south Italy, just like Spain and Portugal which were controlled by Moors, missed the genesis of European/Western civilization. But later they have been Europeanized.
to western Europe with thousands of ships filled with ancient Books and Manuscripts and that's what started the Renascence.
The Turkish population was created through systematic acts of Mass Genocide including the kidnapping of children form their families as a form of taxations and their brainwashing into becoming Muslim fanatics who were then sent back to murder their own people. This act has been declared as Genocide by the International Convention for its prevention and punishment.
On top of that the Turks exterminated the European peoples of Turkey through pogroms, mass slaughters, death marches and ethnic cleansings. They have no place in the Europe.

The main argument of Greeks to pretend they are more Western leaning than their Serb-Vlah cultural common group it's the Byzantine rule in southern Italy.
Europe in year 800.
Europe/West civilization is in orange color, the Frank Carolingian Empire, those are the genesis years of Europe/West.
You see Greeks controlling parts of South Italy, Sicily, and Sardinia.
That means those parts of geographical southern Europe missed the European genesis because of the non-European, Eastern, Orthodox Byzantine rule:
Notice also empires of Turkic Bulgars and Khazars.
Europe year 1000.
Greeks control more of mainland south Italy however it seems they lost Sicily to Arabs.
Europe took shape with 1st Germanic holy Reich and France also appear:
By 1050, the Norman warriors from northwestern France sailed to the region and took anything from the non-European Byzantine and Arab civilizations:
With Sardinia taken by the European/Western German Reich:
So Greeks...
Now the reality...
The centuries-long Greek rule in southern Italy doesn't make you closer to the later Europeanized south Italy, your rule simply made that region less European.
We didn't kill anyone you Cretan cretin. Beside there were no European people in Anatolia. Eastern Christians, who are categorized more with the Christians of Levant than with actual Europeans.

There is nothing Greek about Europe.
Even the word Europe isn't Greek, it came from the Semitic Akkadian word Gharoob / Erebu meaning sunset.
You will tell scientific contribution by the Greeks of old? So did Umayad Arabs of Spain. Are they European too?
You are so OWD'er that you even reject people who are from the same culture as you: Serbs, Romanians and Bulgarians.
The more you trash Turks and this will lower you more. Don't forget Turks ruled over your people, but your people never ruled over Turks.
