The Treaty of Rapallo was a treaty between Italy and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia[citation needed] (Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes), issued to solve the dispute over some territories in current Slovenia and Croatia. It was signed on 12 November 1920[citation needed] in Rapallo near Genoa in Italy. Tension between the kingdoms of Italy and Yugoslavia arose at the end of World War I, when the Empire of Austria-Hungary dissolved and Italy wanted to implement the borders agreed upon in the London Pact.
According to the treaty Zadar (Zara in Italian) was annexed to Italy, while Rijeka (Fiume in Italian) would become the independent Free State of Fiume,[citation needed] thus ending Gabriele d'Annunzio's adventure there, the Italian Regency of Carnaro. The treaty was revoked in 1924, when Italy and Yugoslavia signed the Treaty of Rome, which gave Fiume to Italy and the town of Sušak to Yugoslavia.
