Risorgimento, the name for nationalistic movement in Italy, is the Italian word for what?
Italian Unification (Italian: il Risorgimento, or "The Resurgence") was the political and social movement that unified different states of the Italian peninsula into the single nation of Italy.





There is a lack of consensus on the exact dates for the beginning and the end of Italian reunification, but many scholars agree that the process began with the end of Napoleonic rule and the Congress of Vienna in 1815, and approximately ended with the Franco-Prussian War in 1871, though the last cittè„¿ irredente did not join the Kingdom of Italy until the Italian victory in World War I.
