Detailed Solution

Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. Giuseppe Mazzini was always in favor of a democratic society and state. He was a revolutionary who fought against the monarchy. Mazzini did not believe in small nations and he wanted to unify similar nations for mankind, because the small nation was seen as the patchwork over the large kingdoms. Since Metternich was a monarch, he felt Mazzini was the enemy of social order as Mazzini was in favour of democracy.
