Nationalism broke out throughout Italy due to it's new movement for unification. Before 1850, Italy had not been a very united nation, rather being a land of city-states that competed with each other for power and land. Once Cavour and Garibaldi set the unification in motion, a huge wave of nationalism spread throughout. Everyone was pushing and rooting for Italy to become what Italy is today, "Italy": one unified country. So, socially, everyone's thought changed and the classes banded together to become one.
