| | Quadrilateral - LoveToKnow 1911 |
 | | QUADRILATERAL, in geometry, a figure enclosed by four straight lines. |
 | | But the most famous quadrilateral was that of the four fortified towns of north Italy - Mantua, Peschiera, Verona, and Legnago, FIG. |
 | | The real value of the quadrilateral, which gave Austria such a firm hold on Lombardy, lay in the great natural strength of Mantua and in the readiness with which troops and supplies could be poured into Verona from the north. |
