“I offer neither pay, nor quarter, nor food; I offer hunger, thirst, forced marches, battle and death. Let him who loves his country with his heart, and not merely with his lips, follow me.” Giuseppe Garibaldi
In reality Garibaldi did not accept Lincoln's invitation because the President had not yet officially freed the slaves! And Garibaldi did not want to participate in a foreign conflict without being sure that the cause was truly just!
Yeah, and he pillaged and burned a lot of towns in South America while working as a mercenary. He's seem as a pretty despictable figure around these parts, and somehow we still have some monuments of him and some streets still share his name. Truly blaffing.
@@Inuzumi Ok buddy, no. Italian here. Most people, even Brazialians and Argentians, regards Garibaldi as a hero. His nickname is "The hero of 2 Worlds", and he was very much an idealist. Was he a hot head? Yes. Did he commit some cruel stuff?Yes, but it's war, not even that cruel, no war crimes for GC standards. But never in history i have ever heard a person that Garibaldi should be canceled
@@dominiquesinopoli Did I say Argentina and Brazil? I'm talking about Uruguay and the Uruguayan Civil War. He was not a hero. He was a paid mercenary around here. You can think whatever you want over there buddy. I'm telling you how's he seen here.
Due to failure of his Germanization policies regarding the Polish population, he was the first to propose extermination of Poles that was carried out later by Hitler.
Always wanted to learn more about the events and personalities involved in the Risorgimento, thanks for uploading this video! Also, the music playing during the end credits is beautiful- might it be possible to have a link to it/name of the track+creator?
Fascinating! Garibaldi Square is one of my favourite areas of NYC, yet I knew nothing of the history of the man it was named for? Thx for this enlightening documentary about an individual w/ big goals and big dreams. largely accomplished.
Well, Lincoln invited him to command the army during the civil war but he refused. The 39th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment of the American Civil War was named Garibaldi Guard after him.
There is the Garibaldi Meucci museum on Staten Island. You may want to check tbat out if you're in NY. The museum has cultural stuff going often. Garibaldi stayed with the inventor and candle maker Antonio Meucci. It is interesting that he was there for a few years. I lived there as a kid and liked the historical revolutionary history stuff and went to something there(I'm not sure exactly as U was very young) on a school trip, and we made hand dipped candles which was cool. I thought that was interesting as being Italian background and knew more of him in my 20s reading more about him and the risorgimento. Fascinating life he had.
@mr.archivity It was also interesting as Garibaldi was asked to be a general for the Union army. Garibaldi was intent that slavery should be abolished but due to Lincoln delaying that at the time, Garibaldi refused. He had a lot going on anyway.
I was hoping of a reference to the "Breccia di Porta Pia", when they entered Rome... I visited Caprera, and it was organized as a self-sufficient commune, very interesting.
Excellent documentary about a historical figure of whom I knew little . I was impressed especially by his incredible journeys in an era before Alitalia or now ITA . Undoubtedly a great visionary .
I once passed by a restaurant in New York pointedly named "Nizza", the Italian name of Nice (France). I just checked. It is still there. Thank you for explaining how the Duchy of Savoy and County of Nizza were traded to France in exchange for aid in war against Austria and conquest of Lombardy.
Garibaldi was like the 19th century Guevara. They even had a Volunteer Infantry Regiment named after him during the American Civil War. The 39th New York "Garibaldi Guard".
Sadly he was not, I used to idealize history but the actual reality is: he obtained the unification of Italy thanks to monarchs and with Cavour (Right Wing). Even though they declared ideals of revolution and progress. They actually planned and acted out a complete plan to impoverish the South, committing genocide and taking land from their rightful owners, destroying the economy of small farmers. Only for the industries of the north to pollute and exploit workers. That went on for the following leaders up to the 19th century. They were all Freemasons in lodges, organized for maintaining wealth among the rich. Italy was united, and that's admirable, but the monarchy just changed its face. There is no such thing as good power
Awesome documentary. The world owes much to the Italians. On a side note, am I the only fat *** that gets hungry any time he hears the adjective “Italian” in a sentence, regardless of the subject? My stomach was growling throughout the entire video 😂

Giuseppe Garibaldi was blonde/ginger. The Kingdom of Sardinia was in reality the Kingdom of Savoy and Piedmont (to call it Sardinia it would be like calling Britain as India!!! As Queen Victoria was Empress of India, Victor Emmanuel was King of Sardinia, but a Savoy-Piedmontese king: Sardinia was a sort of colony).
It is really irritating to see the way history documentaries across youtube use stock footage with no relation to the actual story beyond crude, literalist illustration, just to fill screen time. It's not that I don't understand their predicament. They've got to have something going on on the screen at all moments, whether or not any historical image exists, and they cannot afford to film everything themselves. Also, I understand that some viewers consider footage of the narrator him or herself just talking is considered to be somehow lame, although it would in fact be preferable to me. I guess the only solution is not to watch, but I often want to watch because sometimes the visuals do add something.
Well ..there is more to Garibaldi than just heroism ..like most legends the real person and deed is shrouded in mystery....he was definitely a mercenary working for the British for the kingdom of Sardinia the French etcetera... Kids at school in Italy we were told he was the hero of the two worlds "l'eroe dei due mondi"??? The kingdom of Sardinia was in fact the Piedmont royal family of Savoy...it wasn't a unification it was an aggression of a sovereign country...daylight robbery rape and misery for millions of innocent people that had to emigrate to escape poverty created by the conquerors.... Garibaldi? Just a pawn in their game....
the people in Sicily and Campania literally joined and helped Garibaldi,the vast majority of his army after the landing at Marsala was made up of volunteers recruited there
GG was a weird man. As a young man, he comes across in this video like an Italian Che Guevara. I'm from Staten Island, NY and here we have the home where GG stayed with inventor Antonio Meucci. They made candles. The home is now a museum and we can see GG's red uniform and other artifacts. He was an exiled man, going from place to place, war to war. I'm not sure if he ever had real job in his life. He was completely politicized like some people we see today who cheer on Hamas.
Most of those countries he wanted to "disintegrate" (like Austria or the Ottoman Empire) were empires in the proper sense, relics of the Middle Ages in the modern world, and they kept exploiting and oppressing the locals. Most of the Balkans for example did not consider themselves Ottoman or Austrian and were just client states with little to no autonomous power, but plenty of obligations toward the central power. "No taxation without representation" said the american revolutionaries. A country that doesn't recognize universal political, economical and social rights for each and every citizen of theirs, deserves to disintegrate.

If you replace word "country" with "body", it could be gym advertisement 😂
We Need a series or movie based on this legend of a man and his story
But better than the latest Napoleon movie. I would go see it.
I've been thinking that for years. He had an amazing life, taking part in many historical events.
Rossellini did one in 61 called Viva l'italia! Arrow released it on blu ray not too long ago.
Been waiting For this one guys! Thanks! Your documentaries are the Best ❤❤❤❤🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

Fun fact, Garibaldi was born in Nice, he united Italy just to see his hometown being absorbed in the French empire afterwards.
Fun fact - both are terrible biscuits

He got double-Napoleoned

Scacciapensieri !☝🇮🇹
Love how Bismarck has his hand in every major geopolitical manoeuvre of the late 19th century.
Due to failure of his Germanization policies regarding the Polish population, he was the first to propose extermination of Poles that was carried out later by Hitler.
Looks like Garibaldi had both hands in even more tbh

My great great grandfather told his young family he was going to buy tobacco, instead he joined Garibaldi's Mille , sailed to Sicily but ner returned
There's a wilderness park named after him, not far from Vancouver.
And he had time to invent 2 biscuit recipes: one named after Nice and the other after himself
This man made two biscuits the nice and the Garibaldi. What a legend.😏
That was a very informative video. Many thanks
I was hoping of a reference to the "Breccia di Porta Pia", when they entered Rome... I visited Caprera, and it was organized as a self-sufficient commune, very interesting.
You can find his statue close to Vatican in Rome.

He was not anything like Guevara, who was a bloodthirsty genocidal killer.
Sadly he was not, I used to idealize history but the actual reality is: he obtained the unification of Italy thanks to monarchs and with Cavour (Right Wing). Even though they declared ideals of revolution and progress. They actually planned and acted out a complete plan to impoverish the South, committing genocide and taking land from their rightful owners, destroying the economy of small farmers.

They were all Freemasons in lodges, organized for maintaining wealth among the rich. Italy was united, and that's admirable, but the monarchy just changed its face. There is no such thing as good power
He was even offered command of the Union army. He turned it down if emancipation wasn't included.
In my view he was more like Thadeus Kościuszko of Poland. They sound like kindred spirits to me.
Guevara was a piece of garbage, don't even compare Garibaldi to that animal.
The Garibaldi that we wear with PRIDE was made in 1865. I'M SURE I AM I KNOW I AM FOREST TILL I DIE 🌳 ❤️

I’ve been waiting for this forever, his one of my heroes with the greatest beard
any resources to learn about the Polish potato famine or was that part of the gretaer European potato famine? Just being curious.
He certainly 'takes the biscuit'. Unlike most a well intentioned man. with an overall sound morality.

No Italian dreams of calling him a "Founding Father"
When you have governmental longevity measured in weeks, it's a moot point, innit?
No, they call him "Father of the Fatherland" but mentioning Italy in the title was required.

Fighting for unification of his country but for disintegration of others, how hypocritical.
Most of those countries he wanted to "disintegrate" (like Austria or the Ottoman Empire) were empires in the proper sense, relics of the Middle Ages in the modern world, and they kept exploiting and oppressing the locals. Most of the Balkans for example did not consider themselves Ottoman or Austrian and were just client states with little to no autonomous power, but plenty of obligations toward the central power.
"No taxation without representation" said the american revolutionaries. A country that doesn't recognize universal political, economical and social rights for each and every citizen of theirs, deserves to disintegrate.
He ain’t no Bismarck that’s for sure.
Ironic that the consummate revolutionary was willing to be a counterrevolutionary for America in the civil war
Only if the cause is just, as he said.
Italy is younger than the usa 😂
As a modern country? Yes. But the "Kingdom of Italy" dates back since the early Middle Ages as a part of the Holy Roman Empire.
