History

After Charles II's father, Charles I, was executed during the English Civil War, England became a republic for a few years under the leadership (and widely known as a dictatorship) of Oliver Cromwell.  This harsh rule lasted about 7 years, and, after Cromwell died (and his son failed at taking his place), political instability led to the restoration of the monarchy, with Charles II taking the throne.  He was then known as the "Merry Monarch" because 1) of the relief of the dictatorship of Cromwell being over and 2) he was willing to consent to Parliament's wishes in fear of another revolution.

According to mazzini, why should italy be united
Aleksandr [31]

Mazzini believed Italy should be united as one country because all Italians shared a common nationality and cultural heritage.

Details:

Giuseppe Mazzini (1805-1872) was a powerful promoter of Italian nationalism during the 19th century, at a time when the Italian peninsula was divided into many smaller entities.  He founded the group known as Young Italy and was a major figure in the Italian unification movement known as "Risorgimento" ("rising again").  He was a strong voice calling for all Italians to unite together in a republic.  Let me quote you a bit from Mazzini, an example of his persuasive style:

  • <em>"I, believing in the mission entrusted by God to Italy, and the duty of every Italian to strive to attempt its fulfillment; convinced that where God has ordained that a nation shall be, he has given the requisite power to create it; that the people are the depositaries of that power, and that in its right direction for the people, and by the people, lies the secret of victory; convinced that virtue consists in action and sacrifice, and strength in union and constancy of purpose:  I give my name to Young Italy, an association of men holding the same faith."</em>

Italy did not finish its nationalist program of unification as soon as Mazzini would have wanted.  A united Italy finally came together in 1871, not long before Mazzini's death.  But he had been a pioneer of the movement that brought Italians together during his lifetime.
