    To say that "Trieste is a pure Italian city" is completely wrong. The majority may be Italian, and if you look at pizzerias and ice cream shops it may seem as "pure Italian", but it most certainly is not. The historic Slovene and Jewish minorities still endure and there are many more communities present (Serbs, Greeks, Albanians and other Balkans). Trieste is still the capital of Mitteleuropa and will always remain a frontier city, where many different communities meet and live together (sadly not always peacefully). But this is what makes Trieste different. It is an Italian city like no other.

      @@Staniele Austria is german speaking, therefore it should be under Germany, why is is it not? Because it has a national entity on it's own, and south tyroleans make up for a special region in Italy, which would be less special if it was under Austrian control. The austrians are not reclaiming it so loudly like the slovenians are, the problem is that Trieste is italian culturally speaking. South Tyrol wasn't even brought up in the first place, I could have just answered that, since we were talking of a completely different thing. If south tyrol wantet to get back to Austria it would be ok with me tho, but it would be against their own interest, again something that would make their region less special, that's probably why they're still in Italy.

    I agree with member **nothing** that the solution to the problem is google maps, but in defense of Mercator, the missing parts have to be filled in or you won't be able to find your bearing which is why ships use many smaller maps that have more detail for accurate navigation. As a new idea, Mercator was a stroke of genius. I of course have a cut-up globe I always pull out to show students where the filled-in parts are. A classroom solution is to zoom in on a Google Map to a specific location to show how those dynamics change. Regarding the Portuguese accent of the presenter, we are heavily indebted to the Portuguese who were the first to find the sea route to India in 1488.

    This video is very inaccurate. Although Trieste was Austrian for a long time, all the balcanic coast was culturally Italian (Venetian). The inland of the Balkans was mainly inhabited by slavic people whereas the coast was ethnically mixed (Slavic, Italian, Greek...). The Venetian dialect and culture united the different peoples, coming from diverse backgrounds. Many ethnically slavic soldiers, living in the Adriatic coast of modern day Croatia and Bosnia, fought for Italy in the First Word War. The well-know Italian author Italo Svevo, a close friend of James Joyce, was born in Trieste in 1861. His birth name Aron Hector Schmitz is self-explanatory of his Jewish-Austrian background but doesn't suggest at all Svevo' s first language and clear Italian patriotism. It is then false that during the Nazi invasion large part of the population was Jewish and Slovenian because the majority of them were catholic and Italian speaking and therefore more than happy to be Italian citizens.

    First of all thank you so much for this video compulation. There are however a couple of details I would like to share with you, in case you might be interested. (1) Tuvalu actually means 'eight distinct cultures and traditions'. The island of Niulakita is settled by people from Niutao, and is under the administration of the Niutao Island Council of chiefs. So, this is why Niulakita was not considered as a stand alone island with its own distinct culture and traditions. (2) Tuvalu officially became an independent country on October 1st 1978.
