    I could claim as it as Illyrian, but it's actually Italian, they built it and made it a city in every era from the Roman Empire to the modern city you inhabit today. Didn't the Italians built everything on it? They made the population to go from 5K to 50K. Even under Austro-Hungary it was always autonomous.

    Maria Theresa, with her sovereign decision from October the 2nd 1776, gave up the possession of Fiume, that so far belonged to the Habsburgs, and give it to the Hungarian kingdom, with a view of fostering its trade. Since Hungary proper was distant some 500 km, according to the act, understandably, the city was annexed to Croatia whose territory began right beyond the city walls. Although Croatia, as a kingdom, was united with Hungary and together they formed the "Lands of the Holy Crown of St Stephen", the Fiumani protested, and with support of the Hungarian Vice Regency Council, two and a half years later, Maria Theresa (as Queen of Hungary) enacted the royal rescript on April, the 23rd 1779, with whom Fiume was annexed to Hungary directly as a corpus separatum adnexum sacra hungaricae coronae. From that moment on the two kingdoms never ceased to batter on the issue whose was Fiume. The Fiumani, as a third part, gave their reading that Fiume (or better: the corpus separatum) was autonomous from both. Given the institutional instability that characterized the whole period from 1779 up to 1848, this was more or less true. Fiume retained the autonomous status from the surrounding territory it enjoyed with the Habsburgs, since the function of the Governor was preserved, and who was now always drawn from the ranks of the Hungarian aristocracy. Fiume was the only city in Hungary (Croatia included) that had such an institution.
    They didn't build the city, retard. And the text I quoted is from beggining of the article.
    Italians became majority in Rijeka in late 19th century, and in city surroundings they never existed.

    Don't teach me about history of my city. It was part of Italy from 1924 to 1943, not a year more in it's thousand year plus history.

This time, Yugoslav troops advanced (early May 1945) as far west as Trieste in their campaign against the German occupiers of both countries. The city of Rijeka thus became Croatian (i.e., Yugoslav), a situation formalised by the Paris peace treaty between Italy and the wartime Allies on 10 February 1947. Once the change in sovereignty was formalised, 58,000 of the 66,000 Italian-speakers were more or less hastily pushed through various means out of the city (known in Italian as esuli or the exiled ones). The discrimination and persecution many of them experienced at the hands of the Yugoslav officials in the last days of World War II and the first 9 years of peace remained painful memories. Summary executions of alleged fascists (that at times were proven anti-fascists), Italian public servants, military officials and even normal civilians, limited acts of terrorism, imprisonment and loss of work and public positions forced most ethnic Italians to abandon Rijeka in order to avoid further violence. The Trieste crisis in 1954 gave the final pretext to Yugoslav authorities to strip the local Italian-speaking populace of most of its rights (but most were being lost in the years building up to 1954) and enact a more radical and successful assimilation of the previous Italian majority into the new Yugoslav majority.
    Yes, the primitive communists expelled Italians after WW2. It doesn't make the city Italian. These Italians were colonists from nearby NE Italy.
    Because Italians were expelled, we have city filled with Serbs, Bosniaks, Albanians and rest of ex-YU now.

    In all frankness, my friends, I think that I would have been happier were I born 100 years ago.

    I think I would have enjoyed more self peace.

    Would be born in 1896, in a poor backward country with a collapsing Monarchy, probably I'd be a poor peasant working in a semi feudalistic environment somewhere in the rural areas, and i would never go to school and learn to read and write. A pretty fucked up hard life.
