What was the main contrast between Mazzini's republican ideal and Italy's final monarchical form?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Mazzini wanted a people-based republic but unification happened under a king
The governing contrast is between an ideal political form and the actual outcome of state formation. Mazzini imagined a united Italy based on popular sovereignty and republican government. In practice, unification was achieved through the Kingdom of Sardinia-Piedmont and Victor Emmanuel II, so the new Italian state became a constitutional monarchy. Hence A is correct; B reverses the facts and C and D are historically unrelated.
