STAGES IN THE UNIFICATION OF ITALY A BRIEF SUMMARY

General Note: It is a brief summary of the Unification of Italy. It forms the core of all the three answers to the questions suggested in Three Stages of Italian Unification. The following note can also be used for map question.

I believe, that candidates would like this summary if they had mastered the brief answer as suggested in the previous posting.


A. Stage First: - The reactionary powers were weakened and the awareness of nationalism was inculcated and developed among Italians. This stage is identified with the contributions of Mazzini.
B. Stage Second: - The question of Italy and its oppression by Austria became a topic of international debate. Cavour became an established diplomat in European international politics. The status of Sardinia also arose among the leading European powers. Lombardy was snatched from Austria in July 1859. This stage also watched the verdict in favour of merging with Piedmont-Sardinia by the states of Middle Italy. This phase was identified with the success of the diplomacy of Cavour.
C. Stage Third: - Absolutist monarchy in Naples and Sicily was ended by November 1860. The author of this stage was Garibaldi. Garibaldi could have even ended the rule of Pope in central Italy but Victor Emmanuel and Cavour accomplished this task leaving the existence of Pope in Rome intact.

D. Stage Fourth: - Italy, under Emmanuel, measured swords with Austria for one more time and acquired Venetia in 1866.

E. Stage Fifth: - Rome was made the part of Italy and the territories and the area of the influence of Pope was restricted and settled by the end of 1870. In this manner, the process of unification passed through five stages.
