Realizing that it could no longer trust France, the main center of life and the capital was moved to Turin, which was afforded better defenses by constructing a complex system of fortifications known as the Cittadella (which still can be observed, although it was largely destroyed by the subsequent expansion of the city).
Mõistes, et ei saa enam Prantsusmaad usaldada, koliti peamine elukeskus ja pealinn Torinosse, mis pakkus paremat kaitset, kui ehitati välja keerukas kindlustuste süsteem Cittadella (mida võib nüüdki jälgida, kuigi on suuresti hävinud järgnenud linna laienemisega).
