Ten Minute History - The Unification of Italy Short Documentary
video description
2. In 1861 the capital city remained Turin, and moved to Florence only in 1865. The move was to make the capital more secure against French invasion and to reassure France and Austria that Italy had given up ambitions of annexing Rome, which it hadn't
3. The mission of Garibaldi's one thousand to Sicily happened in 1860, just after the annexation of Emilia, Romagna, and Tuscany, and not in 1859 when the Franco-Sardinians defeated Austria

was napoleon working directly for liberal views or indirectly? their national identity is intact, why approach for liberal? international dragnet? some people are outmatched and outclassed in watchful
and dignity. la resistance in a twisted sense of decency, that to give all in the world is the meaning of life (as found of the world in darkness, causality in the making. if one was to the wise a servant, loyalties. if your mother only knew, her heart would surely break in two.

This explains why their allegiances kept shifting in the 20th century. They had been persuing a policy of ally with the side that can give you the most territorial concessions on Victory. In ww1 allies promised Italy Austrian territory when Germany refused to give them the same territory earlier so they switched their alliances, during ww2 Italy was promised Ilyrium and north africa so they sided with Germany (it was unlikely allies would have offered the same swathes of land)

You forgot to mention that after the Vienna settlement the republic of Genoa lost its independence. Many european monarchies were deeply indebted with genoan banks. One could say that Genoa is part of Italy not because of a war, and not because of a plebiscite. It was. convenient, for too many countries. Their wallets, to be more precise.

I wish that you could have asked the people of Naples, or the South more generally speaking, what do they think about Garibaldi. You would be surprised with the answers. And it is not true that Piedmont was an industrialized region, it has bleed dry the South of all of its wealth.

I think you could've mentioned Cavour dying in 1861 further complicating the post-unification process.
Anyway it's a great video, loved 8: 00, Fatta l'Italia bisogna fare gli italiani is a famous espression from Massimo d'Azeglio

To illustrate the impact these wars had around the world: the first time a contingent of Canadian soldiers fought in an overseas war was not during the Boer War. It was catholic French Canadians defending the Papal States.

Congratulations, you can talk fast. How about imagining you're the person watching this, then communicating in a style that enables a degree of assimilation? And lose the cartoons if you want to come across as adult.

Missed the part about how Carlo Pisacane was trying to start in uprising in the Kingdom of Two Sicilies, but the people there mistook his force for a gypsie band trying to steal their food, and killed them.

0: 26 the idea of a unified italy doesn't come at all from napoleon, already in the XV century writers like machiavelli had already expressed how important it would be for italy to unite and get rid of foregneirs

Uniting Italy was bad. At least the part taking the papal territory. We are on the 8 of 8 kings of revelation and the antichrist will be here soon
Thank freemasons (carbonari were a freemason org)

My ancestors left Calabria in 1821 to settle in South Africa. I would love to find a geneologist that could trace my family's history there and find out if we have any living relatives.

Very interesting video. One request: sometimes it goes too far to understand the implications of what is said _and_ to understand what is happening on the screen

Dear History Matters, Italy gave Nice and Savoy to France in 1860 not in 1859 and 1000 men didn't conquer sicily. 1000 landed in marsala, but 1000s more landed later.

Well, that's history as written by the victors. The reality is more complex than that. But then, again, there is only so much you can do in ten minutes.

. the Carbonari thing: (carbone in Italian means coal) they used an obscure language to be not understood. Then a cook named his pasta after them.
