The contest is divided into three categories:
A. Sardinia. This is dedicated to the artists that with any graphic technique, satire, caricature, or cartoon strip can bring to mind the actions and the Sardinian people that, originating from the kingdom of Sardinia, were creators of the kingdom of Italy and of the Italian Republic.
