Write a short note on\xa0cheif minister Cavour? |
| Answer» Count Camillo de Cavour was Chief Minister of\xa0Sardinia-Piedmont state who led the movement to unify the regions of Italy. He was\xa0neither a revolutionary nor a democrat. Like many other wealthy and educated members of the Italian elite, he spoke French much better than he did Italian.\xa0He engineered a careful diplomatic alliance with France, which helped Sardinia-Piedmont defeat the Austrian forces in 1859, and thereby free the northern part of Italy from the Austrian Habsburgs. | |
