Friuli Venezia Giulia
|
Friuli-Venezia Giulia is one of the twenty regions of Italy, and one of five autonomous regions with special statute. The capital is Trieste.
Friuli-Venezia Giulia is divided into four provinces: Gorizia, Pordenone, Trieste e Udine
The name comes from the Latin name of the town of Cividale, ancient capital of the Lombard duchy, which used to be 'Forum Iulii' ('Julius' forum', named after Julius Caesar). This artificial region was created after World War II to solve the problem of Trieste, who had lost its natural hinterland, that was the major part of Venezia Giulia and has been included in the then-existing country of Yugoslavia. Therefore it was decided to aggregate the historical region of Friuli to Trieste.
