of the Kingdom of Italy (1890)]] FERT (sometimes tripled, FERT, FERT, FERT) is the motto of the royal House of Savoy and Kingdom of Italy. The motto was adopted by Duke Vittorio Amedeo II (1666–1732). It appeared for the first time on the collar of the Supreme Order of the Most Holy Annunciation, or Ordine Supremo della Santissima Annunziata, the primary dynastic order of the kingdom. This ceased to be a national order when Italy became a republic in 1946. The order remains under the jurisdiction of the head of the House of Savoy, however, as hereditary Sovereign and Grand Master. ==Gallery== File:Vitrail aux armes d'Amédée VIII-h.jpg|Stained glass with the coat of Amadeus VIII, Duke of Savoy File:Palazzo dei gran maestri di rodi, salone fert 04.JPG|The motto in the main hall of the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes File:Flag of Albania (1939–1943).svg|Flag of the Italian Protectorate of Albania File:COA of Italian East Africa (Wiki Style).svg|Coat of arms of Italian East Africa ==See also== A.E.I.O.U. – another motto of a European dynasty (the House of Habsburg) whose precise meaning and origin is similarly unclear.
