Detailed Solution

Victor Emmanuel II was proclaimed the first King of United Italy.
Giuseppe Mazzini attempted to develop an effective plan for the unifying Italian Republic in the 1830s. He also founded a secret organisation named Young Italy to further his objectives. Due to the failure of the revolutionary movements in 1831 and 1848, Sardinia-Piedmont and its monarch King Victor Emmanuel II, were responsible for bringing the Italian nations together militarily. The ruling class in this area saw a united Italy that allowed political and economic advancement. As a result, Victor Emmanuel II was crowned king of a unified Italy in 1861. However, a sizable portion of the illiterate Italian population continued to live blissfully ignorant of liberal-nationalist ideas.
