The Opera dei Congressi or Work of the Congress was a
anticlerical
legislation and the many divorce bills that were introduced by successive Liberal governments (1861–1922).
It was organised in a hierarchical way, with headquarters at local, regional and
cooperatives.[citation needed] Its influence was at its height in 1897, but it was temporarily disbanded in 1898 after being blamed for widespread bread riots.[1]
It was dissolved in 1904 by Pope Pius X.[1]
