Imbali ihlala igcina ii-nooks kunye ne-crannies zokuyifumana, njengendlu enkulu yecawa enkulu apho ukwazi khona ukubona iinkcukacha eziphela njengeyunivesithi phakathi kwe-ashlars. Into enje iyenzeka ngoFiume, uhlobo lwesiqithi seBaratari esenziwe sazinza kwiminyaka ye-20 yaseYurophu phakathi kweemfazwe.
Umbuzo kukufika kwinoveli njengoko UFernando Clemot, Ngelo nqaku lokukhetha elinokuphinda kufumaneke elona xabiso lalo lokwenyani. Kungenxa yokuba loo ashlar ephawulwe ngamatye asemsebenzini inembali ende de yabekwa apho. Kwangokunjalo, iFree State yaseFiume (isimahla nje okomzuzwana) igxila kwibali namhlanje phakathi kwendyikityha, indumasi, ububi kwaye kwangaxeshanye ikhanyisela iziseko ezingaqhelekanga zabo bonke ubuzwe obunyanzelekileyo nobunyanzelekileyo.
Ke masikulungele ukuya kwiRijeka yaseCroatia namhlanje ukufumanisa indlela ezinqabileyo ngayo iiflegi ezifakwe ngombono kunye negazi. Yiyo loo nto bephela bechaza izinto ezisoyikisayo nanamhlanje xa zijongwa ngaphandle, kodwa zivutha xa zibonwa kwicala labo baqinisa ilaphu kwaye bacule amaculo endumiso. Inomdla iintsomi zembali.

I-Fiume kaSeptemba 1919. Amavolontiya angamakhulu amabini akhokelwa ngumbhali uGabriele D'Annunzio bahlala kwisixeko esikunxweme lwaseCroatia ngenjongo yokuseka ilizwe labo elinamathele e-Itali: iFree State yaseFiume. Kangangeenyanga ezilishumi elinesihlanu umbhali uza kuzama ukudala urhulumente "wamadoda akhululekileyo kunye namagorha" kwaye uyakuyiphuhlisa yonke intetho kunye nezixhobo eziza kusetyenziswa kukunyusa ubu-Fancism kule minyaka ingamashumi amabini ilandelayo.
Kwiminyaka engamashumi amathathu emva koko uTristam Vedder, owayethumela ingxelo kwiNew York Tribune ngelo xesha, ubuyela e-Itali ehamba nosapho lwakhe ukuya kubona indawo apho wafela khona unyana wakhe omncinci, kwiphulo lakutsha nje e-Itali. Ukudibana nemiboniso yamandulo kuya kwenza uVedder aphile ngelo xesha eFumee, ukunyuka kobuFascism, ukuthanda kwakhe okokuqala kuyo nayo yonke into etshintshe ubomi bakhe ngeloxesha. Uyakucinga ngeziphumo zolawulo lobuzwilakhe kunye nemfazwe ngelixa azama ukudibanisa ezinye zezinto ezilahlekileyo kwiminyaka engamashumi amathathu eyadlulayo.
