My family is from Calabria, so really there is no team in Serie A right now with Reggina being in Serie B, so once they were demoted I didn't really have strong ties to any single team in Italy.
I tend to cheer for all the Serie A teams to do well in the Champions League, and generally just have a soft spot for different Italian players and cheer for them to do well.
When I was a kid I loved Maldini, Nesta, Inzaghi, and Pirlo so I cheered for AC Milan a lot (including the CL Final collapse against Liverpool which is where most of the hatred comes from).
When Pirlo went to Juventus and joined up with Buffon and Chiellini in Juventus I started to support them a little more. Plus my family in Italy have always supported Juventus more, so as I kid I'd get a lot of Juventus gear. And we went to a game in Turin, so that's kind of led to me becoming more of a Juventus fan.
In reality though my strongest ties in all of football are to the Italian National Team as a whole.
