Istria/Istra is a peninsula by the Adriatic Sea, parts of which are administered by Croatia, Slovenia and Italy.
This will help you understand more about it.
It is a primary destination for tourists and travellers in Europe, mostly well-known to Center Europeans but often overlooked by everyone else.
The magnificence of both its nature and its cultural heritage make it one of the most interesting spots to visit in the continent.
Yet, once you start digging, it's a bit of a mess!
Find out why, in a small sample of weird and peculiar characteristics of Istria.

From Wikipedia:
Istria (/ˈɪstriə/ ISS-tree-ə; Croatian and Slovene: Istra; Istriot: Eîstria; Istro-Romanian, Italian and Venetian: Istria; formerly Histria in Latin and Ἵστρια in Ancient Greek) is the largest peninsula within the Adriatic Sea. The peninsula is located at the head of the Adriatic between the Gulf of Trieste and the Kvarner Gulf.
The geographical features of Istria include the Učka/Monte Maggiore mountain range, which is the highest portion of the Ćićarija/Cicceria mountain range; the rivers Dragonja/Dragogna, Mirna/Quieto, Pazinčica, and Raša; and the Lim/Canale di Leme bay and valley.
The region has traditionally been ethnically mixed. Under Austrian rule in the 19th century it included a large population of Italians, Croats, and Slovenes as well as some Istro-Romanians, Serbs,[38] and Montenegrins; however, official statistics in those times did not show those nationalities as they do today.
In 1910, the ethnic and linguistic composition was completely mixed. According to the Austrian census results (Istria included here parts of the Karst and Liburnia which are not really part of Istria and excluded ancient Istrian parts, like Trieste), out of 404,309 inhabitants in Istria, 168,116 (41.6%) spoke Serbo-Croatian, 147,416 (36.5%) spoke Italian, 55,365 (13.7%) spoke Slovene, 13,279 (3.3%) spoke German, 882 (0.2%) spoke Istro-Romanian, 2,116 (0.5%) spoke other languages, and 17,135 (4.2%) were non-citizens, which had not been asked for their language of communication. During the last decades of the Habsburg dynasty the coast of Istria profited from tourism within the Empire. Generally speaking, Italians lived on the coast and in the inland cities of northern Istria, while Croats and Slovenes lived in the eastern and southeastern inland parts of the countryside.
In the second half of the 19th century a clash of new ideological movements, Italian irredentism (which claimed Trieste and Istria), Slovene nationalism, and Croatian nationalism (developing individual identities in some quarters while seeking to unite in a Southern Slav identity in others) resulted in growing ethnic conflict between Italians on one side and Slovenes and Croats on the other side. This was intertwined with class conflict, as inhabitants of Istrian towns were mostly Italian, while Croats and Slovenes largely lived out in the eastern countryside.
The Croatian word for the Istrians is Istrani, or Istrijani, the latter being in the local Chakavian dialect. The term Istrani is also used in Slovenia. The Italian word for the Istrians is Istriani and today the Italian minority is organized in many towns.[39] The Istrian county in Croatia is bilingual, as are large parts of Slovenian Istria. Every citizen has the right to speak either Italian or Croatian (Slovene in Slovenian Istria and Italian in the town of Koper/Capodistria, Piran/Pirano, Portorož/Portorose, and Izola/Isola d'Istria) in public administration or in court. Furthermore, Istria is a supranational European Region that includes Italian, Slovenian and Croatian Istria.
Discussions about Istrian ethnicity often use the words "Italian", "Croatian", and "Slovene" to describe the character of the Istrian people. However these terms are best understood as "national affiliations" that may exist in combination with or independently of linguistic, cultural and historical attributes. In the Istrian context, for example, the word "Italian" can just as easily refer to autochthonous speakers of the Venetian language whose antecedents in the region extend before the inception of the Venetian Republic or to the Istriot language the oldest spoken language in Istria, dated back to the Romans, today spoken in the southwest of Istria. It can also refer to Istrian Croats who adopted the veneer of Italian culture as they moved from rural to urban areas, or from the farms into the bourgeoisie.
Another important Istrian community are the Istro-Romanians in the south and north of the Učka mountain range of Istria.

Ancient Slovene land!
Where is the mess?
You forgot about Istriot, but very cool bringing up these forgotten languages 😉
Blană! 👍
What fucking Romanian?
Istro-fucking-Romanian
Istria would be cool as a country.
@Tosslin Why? So that it would be easier to be swallowed by the Italian predator! You won't watch that movie!
@@josiprakovac3284predator?? Lmao. Istria has been of italic culture for centuries. The Croats stole it. Remember that before 1946 Istria had never been part of any Slavic kingdom
@@platonerepubblica7073 What italic culture? What kind of nonsense is that? The Venetians ruled Istria. The Venetians were not "Italic culture" and they were not "Italians" Give proof that the Venetians were of "Italian" origin?
Would be amazing ⚡️, terra magica!
@@josiprakovac3284 venetians were part of Italian culture as the whole Peninsula you should at least study Who Bembo was and why Italians spoke their language before the unification of the country, Anyways, why istria should be part of croatia, then?
