Promemoria describes the history of South Tyrol from 1809 - 2009
1809 vented their opposition to the Bavarian politics under Count Maximilian von Montgelas in the Tyrolean uprising (bars 1 to 30), led by Andreas Hofer, Josef Speckbacher and Father Joachim Haspinger. The popular uprising was also supported by the conservative clergy, but especially by the Austrian court in Vienna First incited, but then let down (bars 31 - 46).
The decisive defeat suffered by the Austrian and Tyrolean at Wörgl on 13 May. In consequence were parts of the country temporarily to Italy and the Illyrian provinces of France, in 1814, the country was reunified, however, and came back to the multiethnic Habsburg Austria. The immemorial Zillertal coincided with Salzburg Salzburg in 1805 to Austria and 1810 in Bavaria. 1814 came to Tyrol. However, there were minor successes of Tyrol (bars 47 - 58), such as in the "Giggler Tobler," where the women and children of Paznaun with rock avalanches and other primitive weapons were the Bavarians from their valley.
In 1919, the Treaty of St. Germain (bars 59 - 136), was the area south of the Brenner to Italy. Italy had claimed, notwithstanding the far south trending Italian-German language border, the watershed between the Mediterranean and Black Sea as ist northern border, the other allies had agreed on this point, not least to retain what is politically unstable Italy to itself () London's secret. Even the division of the watershed (bars 79 - 90) has not been met because three communities lead the Eastern Puster: Dobbiaco, San Candido and Sesto, the streams, partly in the river Drava in Italy arrived.
(bars 107 - 124) The rise of the Fascists in Italy, Nazi Germany and the annexation of Austria into the German Reich further deepened the divisions between North and South, as the border, Hitler and Mussolini at the Brenner Pass, sealed, and a resettlement of the German-speaking Alto Adige planned, which was not carried out because of the war only to a limited extent.
(bars 125 - 136) Even after the Second World War remained the division of the Tyrol and the demarcation of the Peace Treaty of St. Germain still exists.
Although subsequent attempts to incorporate after the Second World War, at least in part with the territory of German-speaking population back to the Austrian Tyrol (bars 137 - 147), failed in 1948 and was 1972 (1. Statute of Autonomy and 2 stroke 148 - 209) in exchange for -- yet significantly developed since then - to achieve autonomy for South Tyrol (Gruber-De Gasperi Agreement). The now "autonomous province" has received broad powers and the two-or trilingualism officially enshrined in law.
In the course of European integration, it also managed different parts of the historical region of Tyrol, but in particular the Austrian province of the same name and the autonomous province of Alto Adige, regain a degree of togetherness (bars 210 - 222). Virtually disappeared by the Schengen Agreement, all border checkpoints between the countries and the introduction of the single currency, the euro region grew closer together economically. 1998 In addition, the Euregio Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino was founded, presided in the country's main men of the state of Tyrol, the Autonomous Province of South Tyrol and the province of Trentino, at regular intervals a total Tyrolean parliament. The work of the European region since then strengthens the cultural identity of the region and promotes the economic and political cooperation within this. |
