Note: "Risorgimento" (Italian meaning revival, or resurgence) is the name commonly associated with the Italian unification movement which took place from maybe 1815 until 1871.

Back to Garibaldi.

There is no doubt about it, Giuseppe Garibaldi (1807-1882) saw a lot of the world during his long and active life, a life of adventure, action, danger and revolution, the stuff of legends. Born in Nice--the city is now part of France as a result of a deal between France and Piedmont-Sardinia for French support in the Piedmont's 1860 war against Austria, which is kind of discussed below--Garibaldi was born into a family of sailors during the upheavals of the Napoleonic wars.

There he met an Italian immigrant who

Giuseppe Maria Garibaldi (GARR-ib-AHL-dee, Italian:[dʒuˈzɛppeɡariˈbaldi];[note 1] 4 July 1807 – 2 June 1882) was an Italian general, revolutionary and republican.
