Hello @extrahistory. At the 3:00 mark you seem to imply that Napoleon had Italian heritage. this would be true if he was from originally Sardinia, but his family actually originated (as mentioned in the video) from Corsica, an island that was never part of 'Italy' and today is part of France. is this a mistake?
As an italian, I started the video thinking I'd see a less glamorous image of Garibaldi than the one I'd been taught in school. Instead it turns out Giuseppe was even more of a badass than I was ever told.
Giuseppe Garibaldi doesn't get nearly as much recognition as he deserves, he played a massive role in uniting Italy, he was a great general, and just a generally a badass
Doesn’t? Even an UK (if I remember correctly) football team are called “garibaldini” to honor him. And that’s one of the least known form to honor him. He was literally the most known man during its time.
He's probably the most famous Italian school kids in India know. We had a really great history teacher. She would teach us the topic "Nationalism and Unification of Italy" similar to how UA-cam videos do now. Garibaldi and the Guerilla warfare in Sicily is the one thing I remember even a decade later.
It pleases me a lot to see EH covering this man. I'm part Italian and an ancestor of mine (I believe it was a Great-great-grandfather? Might need to throw in another "great" for good measure) was one of Garibaldi's men. He too went to South America and settled down there (Argentina, specifically).
Here where I live in Turin Garibaldi is honored with a large statue, as it should be. Garibaldi, Camillo Benso and Mazzini, however different, were the three great patriots who gave birth to the Italian nation.
There's a gynormous bronze and marble statue of Garibaldi in Rome, on the Gianicolo hill. Behind it is the cannon that fires everyday at noon. Plus there's many streets and squares named after him (like piazza Garibaldi in Naples)
I’m more impressed by the love interest herself…SHE’S A COWGIRL PIRATE. COWGIRL PIRATE! …also, there’s just something so perfect about Garibaldi creating a Navy out of nowhere, without proper port access and then driving it to the sea, overland. …considering that’s what his ancestral Roman/Italian/Latin ancestors did (in the Punic Wars I think? May have been the retaking attempt of the Western Roman Empire by Belisarius during the Justinian era…kinda hitting brain fog right now.)
Keep in mind that before the early 20th century, the rule was if it bleeds it breeds. Average age for puberty was higher than it is today, ranging from 13-17. Nowadays it’s 9-12. The past is a foreign country.
Garibaldi wasn't selling BS when he told the troops the reality of what they would suffer if they joined him in the mountains, he was telling the honest to God truth. That straight out honesty makes him quite the trustworthy leader when he doesn't spout lies and just is straight out honest with the reality of the situation.
I wonder if Churchill was inspired by it with his ‘I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, sweat and tears’. Or if the general idea for a speech goes back much further.
@@chequereturned I have feeling Churchill never heard of Garibaldi, but in general practice people like it when someone in positions of power and authority are openly honest about reality. Many military leaders know it's better to be honest and take the blame for things going wrong, rather than lie and then get the blame.
@@girl1213 Churchill actually studied Garibaldi and had intended to write a biography of the man before military life in the British Army and his eventual entry into politics took his focus.
@@renegadeleader1 Huh. Didn't know that one. But it's not really something that's talked about in length when it comes to his interest in military history.
Fun fact: Garibaldi is so loved around the two words that is the only historical character to ever appear in both Us and Ussr's stamps. Another fun fact: since Garibaldi's expertise in warfare so was known in all the world that Abraham Lincoln sent an ambassador to Italy in order to enlist Garibaldi to fight for the Union as general, but he refused since there was no 100% garantee that the slaves would be freed in case of North's victory.
The other two reasons why he declined were that he was busy leading an expedition toward Rome as part of the Italian Risorgimento at the time, and he'd only accept the commission if he was named commander-in-chief of the Union armed forces (which was never going to happen since that job is reserved for the President).
@@foulplayer7812He asked for the immediate abolition of slavery and Lincoln said no And he wanted to be general of the army, not commander in chief, something similar to Grant

Hi from Italy!🇮🇹 Finally something that doesn't talk about the Roman Empire, the Renaissance or Fascism from a english channel. I'm happy that you at Extra History talk about the Risorgimento and the Unification of Italy. 
During the US Civil war, a Union Infantry Regiment of mixed nationalities was called the "Garibaldi Guards" though they would be defeated when Jackson would attack Harpers Ferry.
@@CivilWar-on-Sunday Indeed, one of the lesser known regiments of renown. Their uniform including the red shirt of Garibaldi and their headgear mimicking that worn by the famous Bersaglieri.
Well, Lincoln asked Garibaldi to lead the army but he refused. The NY 39 regiment adopted that name to honor him. And also a lot of groups later in history called themselves “garibaldini”
@@mr.archivity Garibaldi didn't refuse per se, Garibaldi accepted with two conditions 1) he wanted to be put in charge of the Union Army, which might've been possible, as Lincoln was unsatisfied with his generals until he put Grant in charge 2) immediate abolition of slavery *that* ended up being the dealbreaker as Lincoln was still not ready to do so. This was about a year before Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation
Honestly: about fucking time! Garibaldi was one of the europe most influential person in post Napoleon era and had an incredible life. Keep up with the good work!
Im a gaucho from the Rio Grande do Sul state....that man is a beast...the farrapos war would be a lot different if he was not here. Also we have in the state a town called garibaldi... settled by italians.
Our boy lead the arguably most brilliant military manoeuvre ever to take place this side of the Atlantic by taking the entire Riograndense navy on wheels from Capivari to the Atlantic. Then taking Laguna with it, while outnumbered 4x1. Absolute beast of a commander
In Brazil, we have two "Heroes of Two Worlds": 1-Matias de Albuquerque: Was the first General-Governor of Brazil who was born on the colony, and he fought against the Dutch, and later for Portugal during the Restoration War. 2-Emperor Pedro I, who proclaimed the Independence of Brazil, and later fought in Portugal, in order to topple down his brother, who usurped the throne.
@themoocow7718 Indeed. Later, he did a lot of interesting things back home, including fighting in two wars; the latter of them named after him - the Kościuszko Uprising. He also wanted his American assets to be used for freeing and educating enslaved people. Sadly, his wish wasn't realized.
As someone from southern Brazil, it is so cool to listen about things from our history which are so specific to our region such as the Garibaldis and the Ragamuffin War (which we call Revolução Farroupilha and I never had heard its name in English before). Awesome video! 😊
I learned about Garibaldi by playing Victoria 3, where he is an amazing military general that shows up whenever someone who doesn't discriminate agains Italians is fighting for liberty, and then leaves once peace is made to go offer his services elsewhere 😊
We have a statue of Garibaldi here in NYC in Washington Square Park. Giovanni Turini was commissioned by the newspaper Il Progresso Italo-Americano and built in 1888.
From Gotham: General Giuseppe Garibaldi (1807-1882) is the 19th-century Italian patriot and military leader who successfully fought for the unification of Italy, which was completed in 1870. Unification, perhaps ironically, led to the mass migration of Italians to America, including the Village. Garibaldi lived in New York in 1850-1, briefly near the Village. Not long after his death, the editors of the Italian-American newspaper Progreso Italio-Americano began raising funds for a statue to memorialize the Italian patriot and hero. The bronze statue on a granite pedestal was dedicated six years later. According to the NYC Parks Department, the sculptor of the statue, Giovanni Turini (1841-1899) was a volunteer member of Garibaldi’s Fourth Regiment during the war between Italy and Austria in 1866. In 1970, the Garibaldi monument was moved about fifteen feet to the east to allow for the construction of a promenade in Washington Square. A glass vessel containing documents from the 1880s was found under the original base of the statue. The documents included newspaper accounts of Garibaldi’s death, a history of the Committee for the Monument of Garibaldi, the organization that helped place the statue, and a poster for and news clippings about the monument’s dedication.
My great grand mother was Sicilian but she never told me about Italian history and I went to American public schools who have a very linear telling of history so I will be sure to keep an eye out for this series and use it as a start to search for more history
Mr. Garibaldi! Don't worry, I'm not going down a Babylon 5 rabbit hole. I just loved they way Peter Jurrasik delivered that open. It really sticks with you.
Finally, he, the man, the legend, the hero: Giuseppe Garibaldi! Thank you very much Extra History for this video about one of the greatest, if not the greatest, hero of Italy^^
Yes! I've waited 4 months for this! It felt even longer! I have kept myself away from all Italian Unification videos for this. I can't wait for more! 🇮🇹
Stories of 1848 (and '49) in Europe are an excellent source of battle and intrigue. I hope that even more series about the Springtime of the Peoples get picked

As an Italian,you have NO IDEA how long I have waited for Extra History to cover Garibaldi and Italian Unity in general. I will be following this series closely,thanks EH team! Also HELL YEAH EH USES MEMES NOW LETS GOOOO 3:31
In Mexico there is a "Plaza Garibaldi" and a metro station "Garibaldi" which is not because this Giuseppe Garibaldi but in honor to his grandson, Giuseppe "Peppino" Garibaldi, who was a general in the Mexican Revolution.
Adiamo Italianada Gaúcha! Thanks for covering the topic of the man that most defined the history of my two peoples! It is a very rich and exciting part of history still relevant to this day! God willing, we will see this South American people be free of this empire once again, be it with a Garibaldi-like figure or not. Keep up the wonderful work and kudos to everyone in the team! PS: If you want to consult what this myth means to a local for the LIES episode, I'd be happy to help :)
Interesting thing about the Ragamuffin War. Up to today Rio Grande do Sul has a small secession movement and most people here see themselves as Gauchos first, Brazillians second. Even though it was a failed war, it had a huge cultural impact
It's wonderfull to see you cover this man's life. Speaking of, I hope that you will one day do the Takeda Shingen series that you talked about so many years ago.
This paints a map where opinions about Garibaldi get worse towards the equator and better towards the poles. This further implies Garibaldi must have been loved by Santa and Chthulu in a disproportionate manner. In this Ted talk I will...
Nah...I don't think any brazilian outside Rio Grande do Sul has strong opinions on him. The Ragamuffin War was just one of many revolts that happened in Brazil at the time...
Love my week dose of extra history. It like when you hear about Garibaldi's life and you think "I wanna do that" PS I don't want to wait for lies recommend which books you used I want to read about him NOW *Im shacking my desktop computer screen while typing the*
Jack Rackham: I am the most famous pirate to ever allow a woman to join my adventures. Garibaldi: Move over loser, here comes a real filibuster! And I am her husband!
I had not seen the channel in like month and a half , today i return to series on garibaldi and italian unification. And i have a test on italian unification tomorrow...... A wonderful coincidence
Excited for this, not just because Garibaldi is a cool figure, but also because Unification of Italy was something I studied at A-level, and it is a great story, although I suspect that some aspects (the rise of Piedmont/Sovoy) will not feature, because they won’t involve Garibaldi too much. Still excited nonetheless.
When I was at school, the history class just mentioned his Italian adventures, I never knew that he was married to a Brazilian and that she fought alongside him
Thank you for talking about Garibaldi! As you will probably mention, during the last part of his life he retired to the island of Caprera in northern Sardinia. I was born in La Maddalena, the island right next to Caprera, and my grandpa recently told me about the time he met Giuseppe Garibaldi's daughter Clelia Garibaldi visiting the family's house (which is now a museum). I'm sure you will do a great job at giving people the most important pieces of information regarding his life and contributions and inspiring people to learn more about it and about the unification of Italy. P.S. It's Giuseppe (similar to -ay), though, not Giuseppi!
Heyyy Rio Grande do Sul! I was reading about the revolution the other day but I didn't notice it was Garibaldi himself leading the "shipment" of ships overland xD The man was just everywhere

7:58 Here in Brazil I had to act and write a school play based exactly on this topic.
Do you have any footage of the play? I really want to see it.
As an Italian,you have NO IDEA how long I have waited for Extra History to cover Garibaldi and Italian Unity in general. I will be following this series closely,thanks EH team!
Also HELL YEAH EH USES MEMES NOW LETS GOOOO 3:31
Garibaldi is such a wild character and I’m so excited y’all are covering him
Shout out to Mike Duncan and his biography on the Marquis de Lafayette!
In Mexico there is a "Plaza Garibaldi" and a metro station "Garibaldi" which is not because this Giuseppe Garibaldi but in honor to his grandson, Giuseppe "Peppino" Garibaldi, who was a general in the Mexican Revolution.
I love how you put the hands with the conversation bubbles while talking about Italian dialects.
as an italian i'm so damn happy someone is talking about garibaldi THANKS! (even if the bbuchering of italian names is kinda of a pain xD)
Adiamo Italianada Gaúcha! Thanks for covering the topic of the man that most defined the history of my two peoples! It is a very rich and exciting part of history still relevant to this day! God willing, we will see this South American people be free of this empire once again, be it with a Garibaldi-like figure or not. Keep up the wonderful work and kudos to everyone in the team!
PS: If you want to consult what this myth means to a local for the LIES episode, I'd be happy to help :)
I love Extra History!!
Gonna send this to my friend with Italian ancestry :). Gonna enjoy this vid.
I was thinking about the Risorgimento and this popped up. Perfect!
Really curious about this one. Happy to see Mazzini named, he's underrated and less known than Garibaldi outside Italy.
Oh god, someone talking about a piece of (not only) Italian 800's history!?! Dear god thank you so much!
Interesting thing about the Ragamuffin War. Up to today Rio Grande do Sul has a small secession movement and most people here see themselves as Gauchos first, Brazillians second. Even though it was a failed war, it had a huge cultural impact
Finally a most interesting series i've seen for a while on Extra credits. the same narrator but still, with less uncle jokes.
It's wonderfull to see you cover this man's life. Speaking of, I hope that you will one day do the Takeda Shingen series that you talked about so many years ago.
hi Italian here and all i can say about y'all finally covering Garibaldi
*ahem*
LET'S FUCKIN GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Northern Brazillians and Southern Italians: Garibaldi is a villain
Southern Brazillians and Northern Italians: Garibaldi is a hero
Add Uruguayans (Colorado Party) in that hero part
This paints a map where opinions about Garibaldi get worse towards the equator and better towards the poles. This further implies Garibaldi must have been loved by Santa and Chthulu in a disproportionate manner. In this Ted talk I will...
@@taiyoqunthere's quite a gap from Apennines to Andes.
Sorry, couldn't resist De Amicis efecr
Nah...I don't think any brazilian outside Rio Grande do Sul has strong opinions on him. The Ragamuffin War was just one of many revolts that happened in Brazil at the time...
I should add that Argentinian nationalists dislike him too, because he also fought on the seas to keep Uruguayan independence... from Argentina
Anita's house looks exactly like the real one in Laguna. I loved the attention to that detail in the video.
2:49 Who else guessed it was Napoleon?
Love my week dose of extra history. It like when you hear about Garibaldi's life and you think "I wanna do that"
PS I don't want to wait for lies recommend which books you used I want to read about him NOW *Im shacking my desktop computer screen while typing the*
I would give them to you but Rob hasn't given me the list yet!
@@extrahistory darn but Its alright thanks for all you do
5:55 I actually listened to this part three times over
Jack Rackham: I am the most famous pirate to ever allow a woman to join my adventures.
Garibaldi: Move over loser, here comes a real filibuster! And I am her husband!
I had not seen the channel in like month and a half , today i return to series on garibaldi and italian unification. And i have a test on italian unification tomorrow...... A wonderful coincidence
You couldn’t sell this story as a romance/drama hybrid because it’s way too convenient. Yet it is a story that really happened.
6:57 He's so happy! lol I need to gif that
So glad I found this channel, excellent video, you just earned another subscriber
Great video, thanks for covering such an important piece of my country history.
Excited for this, not just because Garibaldi is a cool figure, but also because Unification of Italy was something I studied at A-level, and it is a great story, although I suspect that some aspects (the rise of Piedmont/Sovoy) will not feature, because they won’t involve Garibaldi too much. Still excited nonetheless.
I love the story of the "napoleon of italy". Hopefully we see more of his battles and the hunters of the alps
So excited for this series as an Italian🇮🇹
A Gaucho vs a Cowboy duel!!!, I'd love to see it
When I was at school, the history class just mentioned his Italian adventures, I never knew that he was married to a Brazilian and that she fought alongside him
Ah yes! Just yesterday I was listening the lesson of the Magister, Prof. Barbero, on Garibaldi
Bellissimo, as Italian I'm so happy about the history of Giuseppe Garibaldi!
Thank you for talking about Garibaldi! As you will probably mention, during the last part of his life he retired to the island of Caprera in northern Sardinia. I was born in La Maddalena, the island right next to Caprera, and my grandpa recently told me about the time he met Giuseppe Garibaldi's daughter Clelia Garibaldi visiting the family's house (which is now a museum). I'm sure you will do a great job at giving people the most important pieces of information regarding his life and contributions and inspiring people to learn more about it and about the unification of Italy.
P.S.
It's Giuseppe (similar to -ay), though, not Giuseppi!
Thank you! Can't wait for the next!
I'm indian
I learnt about Italian unification in 10th grade
I had a hard time pronouncing these italian names but the history was interesting
6:57 - 7:22 is my new favorite Extra History moment
I love you and your videos so much you make my day please don't ever die
at 5:00 Who is the ''Socialist Radical'' who was given passage on Garibaldi's Father's ship?
Some Saint Simonians, they were early utopian socialists
Finally after so many years... Italian content. I was dying of thirst my lord
Viva l'Italia! 🇮🇹
I have to admit that this guy's story is going to be really fun n interesting to listen too. Great video.
Song jin wars could be a nice prologue to mongol conquest series?
5:55 damn he really was the most italian man to ever live
Im italian and i realy apreciate if someone talks about italian history without saying something about switching sides
VIVA LA LIBERTÀ
This is insane and I love it! Can't wait to learn more.
Heyyy Rio Grande do Sul! I was reading about the revolution the other day but I didn't notice it was Garibaldi himself leading the "shipment" of ships overland xD The man was just everywhere
Italian history?! LET'S F'N GOOOOOO!
Dude has a great drink named after him. Absolute 10/10
