The Republic of Carnia was short-lived partisan republic with the capital of Ampezzo.The republic had an around of around 2,580 square kilometers (1,000 sq mi) and a population of around 90,000.[1] Despite Italy not having the right for women to vote in elections, the Republic of Carnia allowed women to vote. A year later in 1945, Italy allowed women to vote. [2][3] The country was under a direct democracy and every municipality had a say. [4]
The Republic of Carnia consisted of around 40 municipalities with another 8 being only partially controlled.[2]
On October 1944, much like the other partisan states German troops came and took over the area. Many of the partisans fled to nearby Yugoslavia.[4][5]
