Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Friedrich Wilhelm IV was a Prussian ruler and not the ruler of united Italy. Nevertheless, Prussia was a historically significant German state which eventually became part of a unified Germany. Prussia was established as a ruling state, and its militarisation was central to German unification, which led to the First World War (1914-1918). However, following the restoration of conservatism after the conclusion of the Battle of Waterloo, Prussia rose to prominence on the European stage.
Hence, the correct statement would be that in 1840, Wilhelm IV became the ruler of Prussia.
