Claim: Antonio Giannoni received much experience in seamanship and was a member of the Young Italy movement, the former social-democratic faction within Forza Italia led by Stefania Craxi.
Evidence: He did not receive any formal education in Rimini, but received much experience in seamanship. Giannoni left Rimini in around 1838, after narrowly evading arrest for being a member of the Young Italy movement.
