It's not idealistic.
It IS Machiavellian. :)
Ruthless and charismatic best describes Bismarck and Cavour. Both men were great political leaders and were very intelligent despite their unwillingness to conform.
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.
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
Bismarck is the capital of North Dakota and is a sister city to mandan witch are both on the Missouri river.
Camillo Cavour was the liberal prime minister of the Kingdom of Piedmont - Sardinia. He provoked a war with Austria, and with the help of the French he won. As a result, most of northern Italy voted to join Piedmont. (In the south, Garibaldi captured Sicily and Naples and the southern states joined the northern union.) So, Italy was united in 1861. Otto von Bismarck was the prime minister and foreign minister of Prussia. (Prussia had been a conservative and militaristic monarchy.) TThe Prussians decided to unite Germany but to do so, first they had to win over Austria, becausee she wanted to do the same under their leadership. Austria was defeated by the Prussians in 1866, and this meant that the Habsburgs were excluded from the unification. After the victory, Otto von bismarck made the northern states into a North German Confederation, and when they defeated the French as well, the southern territories joined the Confederation too. In 1871, the united Germany was born with Wilhelm I as Emperor of Germany. Both politicians led their peoples (often to wars) to achieve their main goal: the creation of their nation-states.

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.

Neither one. Bismarck, North Dakota and Denver, Colorado are both located in the Northern Hemisphere.
The best relationships are ones that both people share an obsession with. Its the truth
Battlecruiser DKM Schornhorst (actually went down fighting). Bismarck and Graf Spee both committed suicide (sunk themselves/scuttled).
