What major role did Giuseppe Garibaldi play?
Giuseppe Garibaldi was a follower of an earlier leader Giuseppe Mazzini, who believed in a republican Italy built by the people. Garibaldi was also committed to achieving national unification through a popular movement. He stood for unification from below. The most important thing that Garibaldi did was creating "The Thousand" out of his volunteer fighters, determined to bring down the unpopular Bourbon King of the Two Sicilies, Francis II. Garibaldi's troops took Sicily and insisted that it keep its autonomy. After this first insurrection, his troops continued on to mainland Italy. By later 1860, Garibaldi's forces, along with local support, had taken Naples and toppled the kingdom of Francis II. However, after all of these successes, Garibaldi was stopped from conquering Rome, where French troops guarded the pope. A shred Sardinian nobleman Count Camillo Benso di Cavour stood for unification guided from above by the government. When he saw that French and Austrian intervention could occur when Garibaldi's forces placed a hazard to the pope, he ordered Garibaldi to cede his military authority to the king Victor Emmanuel. He did not want French and Austrian intervention because it would be an immediate threat to Italy. When Victor Emmanuel had military authority, most of Italy was united under a single rule. Thus Garibaldi was significant in that he contributed greatly to the unification and nationhood of Italy.
