Italy: History 1796–1870 
The period 1796 to 1871 was marked by two major events: the invasion of Italy by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1796, leading to the Napoleonic era that ended in 1815; and the rise of nationalist movements, leading to the eventual unification of Italy. When Rome was taken from the French in 1870, the Italian peninsula was fully united as a single nation under the control of the Italian people for the first time since the fall of the Roman Empire in the 5th century AD.
