Answer:

The war of 1859

Step-by-step explanation:

The war can indeed be considered the turning point to Italian unification, the revolts that began in Sicily in 1848 instilled important lessons in Cavour. Primarily the fact that if Italy was ever going to gain independence, they needed to oust Austria.
