to the city of Rome in 1949

In the glorious noon of the national Risorgimento, 9 February 1849 - the best of Italian youth was killed on the terraces of republican Rome, inspired by the tireless apostle of unity Giuseppe Mazzini and guided by the national hero Giuseppe Garibaldi. Rome fights in a Roman way against battle-hardened troops of four armies while a constituent assembly legislates under rifle fire, renewing in a short but brilliant period the military glories and civil virtues with which the thousand-year history of the eternal city is dotted. For the marvelous epic of 1849, Rome once again became the center and flame of Italian hopes, indicating the path to national redemption. On the centenary of the heroic events! On the Capitoline hill where the banner of the republic flies, the people of Rome who in the recent tragedy of their homeland experienced the memorable hours of martyrdom and recovery summarize the votes, the heroisms, the sacrifices of all the Italian cities that, tried but not shaken by the suentura, cooperated in the redemption of Italy.

2. Unification of Italy. Wikipedia
The unification of Italy, also known as the Risorgimento, was the 19th-century political and social movement that resulted in 1861 in the consolidation of different states of the Italian Peninsula and its outlying isles into a single state, the Kingdom of Italy. Inspired by the rebellions in the 1820s and 1830s against the outcome of the Congress of Vienna, the unification process was precipitated by the Revolutions of 1848, and reached completion in 1871 after the capture of Rome and its designation as the capital of the Kingdom of Italy.
