dec 6, 1861 - Italian unification

Description:

Garibaldi has been fightin, crosses Naples to take Rome
- Cavour has been letting him have his way, UNTIL he goes after Rome -- Catholic France would not be happy, Nap III would attack Italy
SO Cavour halts G-Bald and holds a vote

The people choose the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia as their leadership and Garibaldi steps down for King Emmanuel

Italy was now a unified parliamentary monarchy in which the propertied classes ruled (Rome is excluded tho)
