One hundred years ago Gabriele d'Annunzio's Enterprise in Rijeka began. The Poet at the head of 3,500 rebel soldiers takes the Istrian city to "complete the Risorgimento", and soon young people from all over Italy join him. However the Italian government cannot accept such a coup and immediately threatens an armed intervention.
