History
The Slovene-speaking community was part of the Duchy of Carinthia, and fell by the Treaty of St. Germain along with the Mießtal and Unterdrauburg 1919 to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.
She was the only area of the Duchy of Carinthia, which was given up voluntarily by resolution of Parliament in the autumn of 1918 in the form of a territorial exchange with Slovenia, which his German -speaking community Weissenfels ceded ( Fusine in Valromana ) of Carinthia in return, which, however, shortly afterwards, together with the Kanaltal had to be ceded to Italy.
