              Unification Of Italy

Like Germany, Italy has a long history of political fragmentation.

During the middle of the 19th century, Italy was divided into seven states of which only one state(Sardinia-Piedmont) was ruled by an Italian princely house.

The main leaders of unification process are these three revolutionaries: 1) Giuseppe Mazzini, 2) Count de Cavour and 3) Giuseppe Garibaldi.

→In Italy,

• The north part was ruled by Austrian Habsburg.

• Middle part was under Pope.

• And the Southern part was ruled by Bourbon Dynasty.

→ Later, Giuseppe Mazzini subsequently found two secret societies, Young Italy and Young Europe.

→ With the failure of revolutionaries, the responsibility fell on Sardinia Piedmont under its ruler King Victor Emmanuel-2 to unify the Italian states through war.

→ At the end, Austrian Habsburg were defeated by Cavour with the help of France.

Bourbon Dynasty were defeated by the Giuseppe Garibaldi with the support of Peasants.

Hence, Strong nationalist cultural movements and economic development are factors which prepare the ground for Italian unification.
