Episode Description

We've come to the end of the series - this will be the last episode of our story. I'd like to spend this episode addressing some of the big questions that the series raised:

First, was unification inevitable?

Second, was the incorporation of Southern Italy into the new Italian state a result of conquest or unification?

And third, what was the legacy of the three men we focused on: Cavour, Garibaldi, and Mazzini?

Then I'll wrap up with a few closing remarks and say goodbye.
