| | Camillo Benso, conte di Cavour - Wikidia , the free encyclopedia |
 | | Camillo Benso was born in Turin during Napoleonic rule, into a family that had gained a fair amount of land during the French occupation. |
 | | Cavour then lost the next election, while the Piedmontese army was destroyed at the Battle of Novara, leading Charles Albert to abdicate, leaving his son, Victor Emmanuel II in charge. |
 | | Cavour was generally liberal and believed in free trade, public right of opinion, and secular rule, but was still an enemy of the republicans and revolutionaries inside Piedmont, attempting to balance their needs. |
