Dalmatia

Once upon a time, a Disney film called “101 Dalmatians” was released in the early 90’s, and it triggered the demand of these black and white spotted dogs. Kids nagged their parents to buy them one. Sure enough, the parents gave in, and were said to be “in total panic to acquire these puppies,” according to an article by Mireya Navarro on the New York Times. What makes these dogs special, aside from their spots, of course? Let’s get to know more about these dogs. Basic facts The Dalmatian is a medium-sized

promised Trentino, Trieste, land in “south Tyrol and Istria”, and “northern Dalmatia” (98) WWI did not necessarily go well for Italy- many casualties, lack of organization and leadership during war (99) Italy hoped to receive the port of Fiume on Istrian border, some of the land of German colonies in Africa, and also land promised in the Treaty of London (100) Italy did not receive any parts of Africa, Fiume, or northern Dalmatia.

various countries. One of them was Ottoman Empire. As a part of Venetian Republic, Croats gave their contribution in defending their own land during two Ottoman-Venetian wars: War of Cyprus (1570.-1573.) and Cretan war (1645.-1669.). Venice defended Dalmatia to prevent penetration of the Turks in the Apennine peninsula, protect Christian civilization, and the biggest reason was successful trade that took place in

after the war ended Italy was denied two key provinces it was promised by the Treaty of London: Dalmatia and Colonies. Italy’s inability to acquire these provinces from the hands of the other great powers shows the governments laughable weakness and deep political divide. The political divisions within Italy allowed the other great powers, in the post-war settlements, to exploit the them and deny both Dalmatia and Fiume (a port they were hoping to receive as well) to the Italians while they bickered amongst

Banish me from Eden when you will; But first let me eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge! -- Robert Ingersoll41 There are four ways in which humans differ from apes:: 1. They have souls, 2. Their bodies are mostly free of hair, 3. Women suffer birth pangs, and 4. They speak. Each of these changes is discussed in Genesis. The soul was provided by God near the end of the Sixth Day.

I am choosing St. Anastasia because she made it through tough times with her faith always in God. St. Anastasia was not canonized, she has been declared a saint by the early Christian community based on her life of heroic virtue and her martyrdom.

The prisoners she cared for were not there for any violent crimes, but were locked up for being Christian. A virtue that I identitfy with

He is mostly known by his nickname "Romulus Augustulus ", though he ruled officially as Romulus Augustus. If all of this is true and accurate it might have been the fact that Emperor Julius Napos of Dalmatia still considered himself the true Western Emperor and was plotting to get his throne back in Italy. So we don’t know a lot about Romulus and his intentions on the Romans and their Empire, but we do know he was disliked by many, although making

city boundaries on close by rivers (like Jadro near Roman Salona).[3] The Croats were open to Roman art and culture, and first of all to Christianity. First churches were built as royal sanctuaries, and the influence of Roman art was strongest in Dalmatia where the urbanization was thickest and there were the largest number of monuments.[4] Gradually that influence was neglected and certain simplification, alteration of inherited forms, and even creation of original

Roman Empire was stabilized, and the ancient virtues were reestablished. Although his administration was marred with the persecution of the Christians, ultimately his time in office brought much needed help to Rome. Born in 245 in the region of Dalmatia, little is known about Diocletian’s roots. Early documents speculate that he was of humble origins, either the son of either a poor farmer or an emancipated slave. Diocletian’s rise to power was marked with a desire to restore civil order to Rome

Italy was part of a Triple Alliance, with Germany and Austria-Hungary. Italy signed the Treaty of London in April 1915. In the treaty, Italy was promised control of the territories on Austria-Hungary border. Britain offered Italy territories Tyrol, Dalmatia, and Istria.
