Detailed Solution

Giuseppe Mazzini formed the secret society called ‘Young Italy’. He was an Italian revolutionary in the 19th century. He had become a secret member of the secret society of Carbonari. For trying to start a revolution in Liguria in 1831, he was sent to exile at the very young age of 24. Later, to spread the ideas of revolution, he founded two more underground secret societies, "Young Italy" and "Young Europe." In both societies, the members were like-minded young men from different states, i.e., Poland, France, Italy, and the Germans. Mazzini wanted to spread these ideas further because he thought that the nation should be unified, not divided. After all, mankind is the natural unit. Thus, he thought Italy could not remain divided; it should be one unified nation with a unified republic. The conservatives were terrified of Mazzini's ideas for establishing a democratic republic. Metternich described him as "the most dangerous enemy of our social order."
