	Austria - GRAND COALITION AND THE AUSTRIAN PEOPLE'S PARTY CODA, 1955-70
		The status of the ethnically German province of South Tirol had been an Austrian concern ever since the province's transfer to Italy after World War I. Austria hoped that Italy's participation on the losing side of World War II might open the door to the Allied powers awarding the disputed territory to Austria.
		In 1948, however, Italy undercut the autonomy of the South Tiroleans by expanding the autonomous region to include the entire province of Trentino, the total population of which was two-thirds ethnically Italian.
		Austria's persistence, the resolution of South Tirol's status, and de Gaulle's retirement, however, paved the way for an agreement between Austria and the EEC in 1972.

	The Counts of Gorizia Brought to Life
		Sandwiched between the burgeoning Habsburg Empire to the north and west, and the expansionist Venetian Republic to the south, the counts of Gorizia ruled a patchwork of territories that stretched from the eastern Tirol, across present-day southern Austria and northeast Italy and down into Slovenia and Croatia.
		By the end of the 15th century the Habsburgs, who had gained control of the western part of the south Tirol in 1363, completed their long-term aim of absorbing the entirety of this previously autonomous buffer zone.
		And the decades before local independence was finally extinguished are particularly interesting ones, marking as they do the epoch when the thinking, technology and art of the Renaissance was being diffused throughout a mountainous region that was still profoundly medieval in its organization and outlook.
