@RZuelch1 Not currently. But in 1813 Parma (the region where Busseto is located) was (briefly) a département of France. (Waterloo would shake things up.)
Verdi was born in the village of Roncole, which had been (and would later be) in the Duchy of Parma but in 1813 was in the French département of Taro (seen here on this map from 1812). https://t.co/5k38kQTwOR
