Italian unification. In 1859 Piedmontese and French forces, and Italian nationalist volunteers, defeated the Austrians in northern Italy and the Spanish Bourbons in the south. Rome and the surrounding territories, governed by the pope, were threatened with forcible incorporation into the united kingdom of Italy thus created. In Ireland a campaign of mass meetings orchestrated by the Catholic hierarchy raised £80,000 for the defence of the papal states. A total of around 1,000 volunteers travelled to Italy, where they were enrolled in the Battalion of St Patrick and fought in unsuccessful actions against the Piedmontese at Spoleto and Castelfidardo in September 1860.
