Is it that bit of Italy that has Trieste in it? - The only access to the sea for the old Aust-Hungarian empire was near there so was strategically very important.
I guess after WW1 the countries involved would be Italy and whatever Slovenia/Yugoslavia was called then.
Oddly enough I was at a wedding the other week with someone from that region and his older relatives speak a dialect closer to Slovenian than Italian.
