Strange Case of Britain
Strange Case of Britain
Major Event Led to the Unification:
Proclamation of United Italy: In 1860, the army (regular troops and armed volunteers) marched into South Italy and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and succeeded in winning the support of the local peasants in order to drive out the Spanish rulers. In 1861, Victor Emmanuel II was proclaimed king of United Italy. The states of Tuscany, Modena, Parma and the Papal joined hands with Sardinia. By March 1860, the entire Central Italian states were unanimously united with Piedmont. Rome became a part of Sardinia and in this way, the final unification of Italy, was also achieved m 1871. The growth of Great Britain as nation-state can be’ understood sequentially with the points given below.
· As the English nation steadily grew in wealth, importance and power, it was able to extend its influence over the other nations of islands.
· The English Parliament, which has seized power from the monarchy in 1688 at the end of a protracted conflict, was the instrument through which a nation-state, with England at its centre came to be forged.
Incorporation of Scotland in United Kingdom: The Act of Union (1707) between England and Scotland resulted in the formation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain. It meant that England was able to impose its influence on Scotland. Hence, the British Parliament was dominated by its English members. The Catholic clans of Scottish Highlands suffered terrible repression whenever they attempted to assert their independence. They were forbidden to speak their Gaelic language or wear their national dress and large numbers were forcibly driven out of their homeland.
Incorporation of Ireland in United Kingdom: Ireland was treated in a similar way as was Scotland. It was a country divided into Catholics and Protestants. The English supported the Protestants of Ireland to establish their dominance over a largely Catholic country. The revolt raised by Catholics was suppressed. After a failed revolt led by Wolfe Tone and his United Irishmen (1798), Ireland was forcibly incorporated into the United Kingdom of Britain in 1801. A new ‘British’ nation was forged through the propagation of a dominant English culture. The symbols of the New Britain were the British flag (Union Jack), the National Anthem (God Save Our Noble King) and the English language.
