count di cavour

otto von bismarck

giuseppe garibaldi

Explanation:

Count Camillo di Cavour was prime minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, serving under King Victor Emmanuel II.  This was a time in history (in the 19th century) when prime ministers were starting to exercise more control of policy than the kings themselves.  It was also a time of something that came to be known a "Realpolitik" (a German term), or "realistic politics."  Cavour was a political realist who chose paths of action that would benefit his overall aims, whether or not they fit some specific ideology or master plan.  I suppose "cunning politician" would be one way of saying that.  Another is the term "Realpolitik" - that he practiced political realism.
