Inverse Galois theory and Hilbert class field I am not sure if the following questions have an answer.

(Question 1) Let $G$ be a finite Abelian group. Is it possible to find an unramified Abelian extension $L/K$ such that
$$G \cong \mathrm{Gal}(L/K)$$
Can we drop the condition of $G$ being Abelian?

(Question 2) Let $G$ be a finite Abelian group. Is it possible to find an extensions $L/K$ such that
$$G \cong \mathrm{Gal}(L/K) \cong CL(K)$$
where $L$ is the Hilbert Class Field of $K$ and the last isomorphism follows from Artin reciprocity. This would give us a method to construct maximal unramified Abelian extensions.

Thanks in advance!

The answer to the first question is yes. Construct an extension $K/F$ with given Galois group and lift it to an extension $KL/FL$ where $L$ and $K$ are disjoint and $L$ is chosen in such a way that it kills the ramification in $K/F$. This result was first proved by Arnold Scholz, then by Emil Artin in a private communication to Helmut Hasse (see their correspondence), and finally it was rediscovered by Ali Froehlich. 
As for the second question, Ozaki has recently shown (Construction of maximal unramified p-extensions with prescribed Galois groups, Invent. Math. 183 )2011),
649-680) that every finite $p$-group is the Galois group of the $p$-class field 
tower of a suitable number field.
