| | Italian unification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | But groups in several Italian states began to push the idea of a unified Italian state again, feeding the flames of nationalism that had already been ignited in the populace. | | | The revolts in Modena and the Papal Legations inspired similar activity in the Duchy of Parma, where the tricolore flag was adopted; the duchess Marie Louise left the city. | | | Consequently, it will not identify itself as a "secession" movement, since it claims that it was never a part of Italy in the first place. |

| | Italian Jewry has often, and rightfully so, been considered the oldest Jewish community of the Western world, as Jewish presence in Italy has been continuous for over two millennia. | | | Therefore, assimilation to other Italian Jews was not difficult, and instead of drastic linguistic consequences, it created a linguistic compromise. | | | These new immigrants were Jews, but they were also "Italians" speaking a vernacular which had at its roots Latin. |

| | Gabaccia and Ottanelli/Italian Workers of the World. Chapter 1 |
| | The long-term legacy of the Risorgimento was an Italian state without a secure or a united nation to support it and a worldwide scattering of Italian citizens uninterested in creating a coherent diaspora nationalism like that of Jews, Greeks, or Poles, with their clear focus on change in the homeland. | | | For them, the movement for Italian unification was the most immediate way to pursue political change worldwide; today, we could label their political ideals more democratic or revolutionary than nationalist. | | | Garibaldi subsequently organized an Italian legion in Montevideo that fought with the rebel "colorados" against the forces of the Argentine dictator General Juan Manuel de Rosas. |
