0 comments

On 24 June 1859 in Solferino a small town located in the lower mainland Provincial Lambordi North of Italy took place between soldiers fighting France and Austria. The battle that lasted about 4 hours and involves some 320000 people soldiers have tens of thousands of dead and wounded. About 40 thousand people died in the fighting.
The number of soldiers who fell victim to a battle took place between where the groups facing each other it is a characteristic of war which took place at that time. No change as the mass killings of thousands of people were slaughtered at a time. What's more the military commander was not paying attention to the interests of the injured people to get help and treatment. They are only considered “ food Cannon”. The number of surgeons were very insufficient. At that time there were only four people who took care of a veterinarian and a medical doctor of a thousand horses to a thousand people. The battle was eventually won by France.

As a result of the war with the landscape that was terrible evocative of Henry Dunant a born entrepreneur who happened to be passing by Switzerland in his journeys to meet with the Emperor Napoleon III for purposes of the business. However witness a very horrible scene of the battle made his sadness came up and forgotten will aim to meet with the emperor. Henry Dunant put together people from the surrounding villages and stayed there for three days to earnestly spent her time to caring for injured people.
Thousands of injured people without care and left to die on the spot because of inadequate medical services and insufficient in number assignment/skills making it very moved. Words are brilliantly expressed at that time Siamo Tutti Fratelli (Peace In Time Of War) open heart volunteers to serve friends or opponents without it apart.
