[Map, City of Trieste]
Trieste is a jewel of a city on
the coast of the Adriatic Sea, just
west of Slovenia. This is where Maria Zampieri Proni was born, and
where she and Oscar Proni
attended high school.
You can't tell by looking at the map, but Trieste is very hilly,
reminiscent of San Francisco, California.
For nine years after World War II, Trieste was a disputed territory,
fought over by the Yugoslavians and the Italians, and administered by
the British and the
Americans. See the Wikipedia
article on the Free Territory of Trieste.
