Biography
Camillo De Camillis was an Italian diplomat. He was an Italian colonial governor of Eritrea.
Data
His role of "Regent Governor" in Italian was Funzionario ruolo colonie (attribuzione: Reggente) from July 1919 to November 1920.
The Regent Governor of Eritrea Camillo De Camillis instructed all colonial commissaries in Eritrea to attribute Italian citizenship automatically to the sons and daughters of unknown Italian paternal parenthood, even in the absence of paternal legal acknowledgement. So these "mulatto" Eritrean kids became Italian citizens by law.
This was a revolutionary law when created, opening the first steps toward racial integration in colonial Africa.
