In other video you describe states which can exist in future or part of territories wanting to split from the state in which they now are. Remember that in Trieste there is still an underground movement for indipendence, which sometimes grow up to the surface: in 2013 almost 3.000 inhabitants of Trieste marched to remember the anniversary of foundation of the Free Territory of Trieste., claiming the indipendence of the city from Italy

    Hello from Rijeka, former Free State of Fiume (it's actually pronounced with a sonic E at the end). Today, we live in the third largest city in Croatia, but there's a strong local identity as well. While any kind of serious separatist movements aren't present, there is a constant reminder of the unique position we are in. The symbolic two-headed eagle still stands in several public places. Some curiosities might be the strong Italian culture being present here, as well as generally somewhat more liberal political stances than the majority of Croatia. Throughout history, we have been under Hungary, Habsburg Empire, Serbia, France, Italy and of course, Croatia. There is a lot of cultural mixing here.

    Trieste in English is officially pronounced as "Triest", probably because German is much closer to English (and the German name is without the "e"). However, you are right about Fiume, with the difference in that I would describe it to an English speaker as "few+may".

There were a lot of these types of nation-building and separatist experiments going on during the various Communists uprisings and the Russian Civil War like the Republic of the Far East, Green Ukraine, the Transcaucasian SFSR, etc. You could also take as examples the territorial holdings of the Warlords during the Warlord Era and the civil war in China from the 20s up to the 50s.

And then Carpatho-Ukraine, as mentioned here. But there was a group of pro-Russian Rusyn's in west Galicia, that declared a Lemko-Rusyn People's Republic, which shouldn't be confused for its nearby pro-Ukrainian neighbour, the Komancza Republic (East-Lemko Republic).

    While not well known, but between 1920 and 1922 there was the Republic of Central Lithuania, an interesting temporary country, with an ideological background. Marshall Pilsudski dreamed of creating the great polish state, witch would have included present day Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine. By Pilsudski's idea, the great polish should have had such administrative territories as East Lithuania (mostly present day Belarus), central Lithuania (mostly the Vilnius region) and west Lithuania (mostly present day Lithuania). The attempt to create such a state was unsuccessful, but the Republic of Central Lithuania did gain a temporary materialization in the following years after WW I. In the end, when the Republic of Lithuania was able to get a foothold, and little by little gained international recognition, the country of Central Lithuania was scrapped and incorporated into Poland.

    Yep and Lithuania was pissed that Poland didn’t give them Vinius/Wilna. That was one of the carrots the Soviets offered in 1939/40 after the annexation of eastern Poland by the Soviet Union. Vilnius was given back to Lithuania, but then a few months later the Soviet Union annexed Lithuania as well. However Vilnius remained in the Lithuanian SSR, allowing Lithuania to keep the city upon its independence.

    Missed opportunity to talk about how before the institution of the free city of Fiume, it was militarily occupied by famed italian poet, writer, aviator, aesthete, nationalist and douchebag Gabriele D'Annunzio and a bunch of so called "legionaries", since they all were fairly outraged about the ridiculous territorial concessions given to Italy followin the Versailles treaty. Overall events like these were among the causes that led to the rise of fascism in Italy, but it's also really something we italians love to joke about based on how over the top D'Annunzio was

    D’Annunzio and co. set up an Italian regency of Carnaro in the city, which was more of a Salazar-type syndicalist dictatorship rather than fascism, but then the British and French decided to create a free territory so they had the Italians reject the protectorate and send troops to free the city of the Italian legionaries and set up a free territory instead, however despite Italy granting this favor which was unpopular at home, the allies then did not grant Italy as much of Dalmatia as it had been promised and only let them keep Zara. I believe this was part of the “mutilated victory” narrative, very similar to the “stab in the back” only from the victor’s perspective

    8:27 there's an interesting story about Fiume (river in Italian). Italian soldiers felt cheated from the treaty of Versailles, just like the Germans did, because Italy requested those lands of Istria and Dalmatia when winning the war with treaty of London prior entry of Italy to WW1 having the majority of Italians living on those coasts. The morale of Italian soldiers was low at the end of WW1 because they felt they had fought for nothing. Unfortunately, Woodrow Wilson didn't give those lands to Italy because many Slavs were also living there, but the majority of them were on the inside of those regions. What he granted to Italy was the South Tyrol (Alto Adige), which was never part of Italy and always belonged to Austria. That's why in that part of Italy nowadays, those people living there are still very hostile to us Italians. This was one of the main factors that made fascism grow after the Great War and inspired the famous Italian poet and writer Gabriele D'Annunzio and other WW1 veterans to take over Fiume which was part of those lands for which Italians fought for. D'Annunzio was an heroic WW1 veteran who flew alone over Vienna and dropped leaflets making fun of the Austro-Hungarian empire and trolling them basically as he could have dropped bombs instead. He also left, on another occasion, 3 bottles (a green, a white and a red one) in the harbour of Kotor in Montenegro (where a good amount of Austria Hungary fleet were) with a war boat and with only a few men onboard. If anyone is interested, it's possible to visit his mansion which he left and it is very peculiar inside ( Google "il Vittoriale of D'Annunzio).

    If you watch Lidia’s Kitchen on PBS in the states, the host Lidia Bastianich was actually born in the southern part of Istria, which became Zone B. Her family was forced (like many others) to change their names to sound more Slavic, her family went from Matticchio to Motika, fearing life In Yugoslavia, she fled with her mother and brother to Trieste, under the pretense of visiting a sick relative. Her father was to stay behind as an unspoken hostage, to ensure their return. He snuck away that night and crossed into zone A to join them. They ended up as refugees along with many others, and eventually were given permission to emigrate to America. Her ex-husband was also from zone B, hence her still having a Slavic last name.

    You missed Neutral Moresnet, It was a state that basically consisted of a zinc mine and three villages in Kelmis in present day Belgium from 1816 until 1920. When Napoleon had lost, Germany (Prussia) and The Netherlands coukd not agree on ownership, so it became an independent country where the mayor was also king. They had their own money, stamps. taxation, anthem and flag (the Saargebiet flag upside down). There were plans to declare esperanto the national language, There even was the only quadrupal border in the world between Moresnet, Belgium, Germany and The Netherlands. At the current triple border between Belgium, Germany and The Netherlands there still is a Moresnet border stone. After WW 1 Belgium annexed Moresnet.

    Danzig is a very interesting case. Not poles, yet polish. There even was rebellion of the Prussian Confederacy, centered around the city, managed by Pomeranio-prussian merchants and peasants against the teutonic order, with the aim to unite as an autonomous part with poland - it was a historical tradition that Gdańsk would be poland s seagate and tradehub, in exchange for autonomy, protection from (mostly) germans, which allowed the Danzigers to avoid kinda strangling holyroman laws and customs. So yeah, the city decided to be polish to cheat in the game of trade.

However, the letter in this syllable is pronounced almost like the short e sound. This pronunciation is between the long a sound and short e sound, but sounds closer to the short e sound.), 3rd syllable: te (The letter e I this syllable is pronounced like the long a sound.).
