National Unification in Italy 1849-1870

The course ‘National Unification in Italy 1849-1870’ was projected to be a helpful resource in teaching my high-school students.

The structure of the lesson is as follows:

1. A chronological axis with the main events from The Revolution of 1848-1849 to the Annexation of Rome;
2. The chapter ‘A divided country’ - map explanations about the Italian states;
3. The chapter ‘A providential figure: Camillo Benso, Count of Cavour’ (Youth and Early Career, Premier of Piedmont, Foreign Policy);
4. The chapter ‘The War Against Austria’;
5. The chapter ‘Piedmont’s Annexation in the Northen Italy’;
6. The chapter ‘Revolution in Southern Italy’;
7. The chapter ‘Proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy’;
8. The chapter ‘Annexation of Venice and Rome’.

I hope it will be useful for you!
