A Rock and a Hard Place (Part Two): The Troubled History of South Tyrol

from History Loves Company · host Chester Sakamoto

Much like life, history has a way of going its own way, usually in a direction one least expects. After becoming part of Italy, South Tyrol enjoyed some autonomy and was allowed to retain its culture and practices. But then, a little thing called fascism assumed control of Italy in what can best be described as a coup d'état and the South Tyroleans found their entire world turned upside-down. Find out how it all turned out, in the second part of South Tyrol's story, this week on the History Loves Company podcast.
