Answer: Young Italy

Explanation: Giuseppe Mazzini was an Italian politician, journalist and activist. He clamoured for the unification of Italy and is believed to have spearheaded the Italian revolutionary movement. His efforts helped bring about the independent and unified Italy.

Young Italy (La Giovine Italia in Italian) was a political movement for the Italian youth founded in 1831 by Giuseppe Mazzini. After he left Italy, Mazzini wrote a letter to King Charles Albert of Sardinia, in which he asked him to unite Italy. A month later, convinced that his demands were not conveyed to the king, he founded the Young Italy movement in Marseille,from where it spread out to other nations across Europe. The movement's goal was to create a united Italian republic.
