 Yugoslavia - LoveToKnow 1911
This agreement is known as the Pact of Rome, because it was publicly proclaimed at a " Congress of the Oppressed Nationalities of Austria-Hungary," held on April 8 in the Roman Capitol.
The Yugosla y s were represented by Trumbic and his Committee and by 12 deputies of the Serbian Skupstina, the Czechoslovaks by Benes and Stefanik, the Poles by Zamorski, Skirmunt and Seyda, the Rumanians by Draghicescu, Lupu and Mironescu.
Baron Sonnino held aloof, but Premier Signor Orlando, greeted the congress with enthusiasm, and the first result was a combined propaganda on the Italian front, organized by Allied delegates and members of all the national committees.

 Minsk History -- 9
Later came the First World War and one of the most dramatic episodes in the city's history -- the power-struggle between the Belarusian National Rada and the Bolsheviks from 1917-1919.
On the national side stood such distinguished patriots as Professor E. Karski, General K. Aliexejeuski, Anton Luckievicz, Edvard Vajnilovicz, the poet Ales Harun, Col. Kastus Jezavitau, Janka Kupala, Jazep Varonka, Count Skirmunt, Zmitrok Biadulia, Princess Mahdaliena Radzivil(the Countess Markievicz of Belarus) and others, in particular the railway workers.
The Bolshevik side was led by Russian internationalist and professional revolutionaries -- Lander, Knorin, and Miasnikou, -- backed by mutinous but well armed Tsarist soldiers, who ultimately prevailed.

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Belarusians have deep and rich legal tradition which stems from the Statutes of Grand Duchy of Litva1 (1522,1569,1588), written in the old Belarusian language, which were the most progressive examples of medieval codification of law in the Europe of that time.
It is interesting to note that the modern identity of Belarusians as a nation has been formulated to a large extent by professional lawyers: from Kastus Kalinoŭski and Francisak Bahusevic to Ivan Luckievic, Raman Skirmunt and others.
Another important goal of the journal is to cover the lack of legal information in the Belarusian language.
