The Five Days of Milan (Italian: Cinque giornate di Milano[ˈtʃiŋkwedʒorˈnaːtedimiˈlaːno]) was an insurrection and a major event in the Revolutionary Year of 1848 that started the First Italian War of Independence. On 18 March, a rebellion arose in the city of Milan which in five days of street fighting drove Marshal Radetzky and his Austrian soldiers from the city.
