I will say both cause he started a civil war much like ewhat Bismarck and Cavour had done and also released the emancipation proclamation much like what Alexander II had done.
Although he had won the war but much like Russia differences in class, in Licoln's era differences of race still lives on. He never succeed in truly create a stronger nation he just happens to have better tactics and technology than his rivals.
If you are asking about personality i don't think Lincoln was not anyone of them, He is not as ruthless as Bismark nor is he as quite as Alexander II
Ruthless and charismatic best describes Bismarck and Cavour. Both men were great political leaders and were very intelligent despite their unwillingness to conform.
Cavour tried to united Italy through conquests and by publishing a nationalist newspaper. Bismarck used secret alliances as a means of unifying Germany.
Camillo Cavour and Otto von Bismarck were both key figures in the unification of Italy and Germany, respectively, but they differed in their approaches and ideologies. Cavour, a pragmatic statesman, focused on diplomacy, economic modernization, and alliances to achieve Italian unification, primarily through constitutional monarchy. In contrast, Bismarck, known for his realpolitik, employed a more militaristic and aggressive strategy, using wars and diplomatic manipulation to unify Germany under Prussian leadership. While both leaders were influential in shaping their nations, their methods and political contexts were distinct.
It's not idealistic.It IS Machiavellian. :)

All three of these men led the unification of their respective homelands (Bismarck - Germany, Cavour - Italy, Meiji - Japan) in the mid-to-late 1800s and the industrialization and modernization of their countries. The unifications in all cases required impressive military tactics and diplomatic acumen. These leaders also thrust their countries into the imperialist land grab in Africa, Asia, and Oceania, trying to get any territories not already taken by UK, France, Portugal, Netherlands, or Belgium.
Bismarck in Germany and Cavour in Italy both aimed to unify their respective nations through strategic diplomacy and military action, prioritizing national interests over ideological considerations. They utilized a combination of realpolitik, alliances, and conflict to achieve their goals, seeking to consolidate power and foster national identity. Both leaders were adept at manipulating political situations and leveraging opportunities, such as wars and treaties, to advance their unification efforts. Ultimately, their approaches reflected a pragmatic focus on state-building and national strength.
