Nobody understands this out why! 🇮🇹

Aquaviva Collecroce (or as the locals call it, Kruć), Italy. In the southern Italian region of Molise exist 3 towns which were historically settled by Croats in the 1500’s. 500 years later, Croats still inhabit these picturesque Italian towns and apparently speak a variety of the Croatian language to this day. 0:00 Croats in Italy!? 2:33 Italian Train FAILURES 7:40 Europe’s SMALLEST Street 11:51 Italy’s CROATIAN Town! 20:12 HISTORY of Aquaviva 25:23 Village Life 31:02 Back to Civilization! It seemed crazy to me that a language could survive for over half a millennium in a foreign country, so I decided to investigate. I met many of the Italian Croats and spoke with them in both Italian and Croatian. However, most people there didn’t speak much of the Croatian that I’ve learned while travelling the Balkans. To my surprise, they had their own proper language! And don’t try to call this Croatian-based language in Molise a dialect, it’s a proper language and is recognized by the Italian government as such :) As a final note, it was great to finally see the region of Molise, which many Italians say doesn’t exist! Well, in this video we put this myth to rest! Molise is real and so are the Molise Croats! Come join me on this adventure! Thanks for watching as always! Grazie di aver guardato! Hvala za gledanje!
