At the time of Congress of Vienna Italy didn't exist as a nation. Austrian Prime Minister Metternich said that Italy was only "a Geographical Expression". After the fall of Napoleonic Empire the Congress of Vienna cancelled all the half-independent states created by Napoleon in Italy, which had at least a semblance of liberal rules of government, and restored the old absolute regimes. Worse still, the Congress didn't restore the Republic of Venice, whose territories became part of Austrian Empire, giving to that nation the predominance in Italy and upon the north Adriatic coastal range. So, we can say that the Congress of Vienna represented for Italy a regress of some 20 years and an indubitable loss of what little was achieved during the Napoleonic Era.
The country that did not attend the Congress of Vienna was the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire was not invited to the Congress due to its declining power and influence in Europe at the time.
