Trentino and Alto Adige, Venezia Tridentina, consisting of Trentino to the south and Alto Adige (southern Tyrolia) to the north.

Trentino and Alto Adige were part of Italia irredenta — unredeemed Italy — regions of Austria-Hungary with substantial Italian-speaking populations. Seizing them was a principle Italian war aim.
