Dragonja. The river that marks the new frontier of Europe.
Near the international checkpoint between Slovenia and Croazia, 2017

Anti-immigration measures are an excuse for reinforcing ethnic differences, denying the local cultural diversity of the area.

The border of Europe that never existed. The current boundary on the Dragoon, the river that from Savrinia descends to the sea, leading to the Pirano Valley through the salt pans. It was not a border under the Romans, not under the Ostrogoths or under the Byzantines, and then the patriarchate of Aquileia and the Esarcato of Ravenna and Charlemagne and down for centuries and centuries under Venice and then Napoleon and the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Kingdom of ‘Italy and the Nazi Adriatic Kustenland and the Free Territory of Trieste and Yugoslavia of Tito. The actual border never existed until 25 years.
