The exciting history of South Tyrol South Tyrol - torn between Austria and Italy. Even though Austria lost the area to Italy over 100 years ago, many South Tyroleans are still in an identity crisis today. Many continue to speak German, cultivate Austrian culture and look suspiciously at the Italian government in Rome.
