Irredentism is now used to describe the ambition of governments to hack off and annex pieces of neighboring territory - as the Hungarian far right wants to do not only to Ukraine, but also to Romania and other neighbors. 2/x — PolitiTweet.org

Irredentism traces back to an Italian word meaning "unredeemed" - places and territories coveted by Italian nationalists even after they assembled their state in the 1850s and 1860s. 1/x — PolitiTweet.org

My family and I went skiing earlier this month in one of the places classically described as "irredenta": the South Tyrol, formerly German-speaking and Habsburg-ruled, but since 1919, annexed to Italy. 3/x — PolitiTweet.org
