He became internationally recognized politician when waging a Crimean war together with Britain and France.

In 1860 he was able to move from Genoa to Sicily, to conquer a kingdom of Two Sicilies (at that time under the rule of Bourbon dynasty) and Umbria. These territories Garibaldi handed in to Savoy dynasty (Victor Emmanuel II). After all these event Italian kingdom was proclaimed in Torino (1861). Garibaldi was born in Nizza (today French city of Nice), so he is - as well as Cavour who was born in Torino - from the extreme west of Italy.
