– fueled efforts to build nation-states
– Loyalty is to the people and not to the kings or queens
– A number of links bound a people together as a nation

Nationalism Shakes Aging Empires
• Nationalism worked as a force for disunity, shaking old empires, but also for unity which helped in the development of the nation-states of today
• Ex. Austro-Hungarian Empire, Russian Empire, Ottoman Empire
Cavour Unites Italy• After the Congress of
Vienna – Italy was ruled by many foreign rulers – (Austria and the Spanish Bourbon family)
• In 1852, Sardinia's King named Camillo di Cavour as his prime minister
Cavour Unites Italy
• He began to unify Italy by trying to expel Austria in the north with the help of France
Cavour Looks South• Cavour secretly
started helping nationalist rebels led by Giuseppe Garibaldi
• Garibaldi would lead a group known as the Red Shirts
Cavour Looks South• Garibaldi will
successfully unite the southern parts of Italy leaving the Papal States as the last remaining area needed to unite
The Rise of Prussia• Since 1815, 39 German states (German
Confederation) was dominated by Austria-Hungary and Prussia.
The Rise of Prussia• Prussia’s Kaiser Wilhelm I
saw parliament as a threat and with the support of Junkers (Prussia’s wealthy landowners) named Otto von Bismarck prime minister
• Bismarck was a master of realpolitik “the politics of reality”
German Unification• He then eliminates
Austria in the Seven Weeks’ War to gain control of northern Germany = both eastern and western parts of the Prussian kingdom were now joined!
German Unification• With southern Prussia remaining non-unified
Bismarck will force France into the Franco-Prussian War (1870) making Kaiser Wilhelm I emperor of the Second Reich.
