Causes and consequences of Italian unification

In this new video from Unprofesor we will explain the "Causes and consequences of Italian unification".

Today we will make a short summary about the causes and consequences of Italian unification. To begin with, let us remember that the Italian unification was a long-term process, which had much diplomacy, many cross-country alliances and a few wars to finally create the state Italian. To end up uniting all the different states that were in the Italian peninsula in a single state. The kingdom of Italy.

Let's see what causes led to this unification? The first would be the Piedmontese bourgeoisie. In fact, in Piedmont there was King Victor Manuel II and it was the supply of the Count of Cavour who were the promoters, supported by the Piedmontese bourgeoisie (that is, industrialists, politicians and intellectuals) who wanted to expand the market and unify Italy because they believed that the entire Italian peninsula formed a EVERYTHING. They had the same culture, the same historical past... they are the ones who push the first steps that Piemonte takes to progressively unify the entire Italian peninsula.
