The Influence of the American Experts on the Adriatic Question in 1919
Abstract
Before World War I, Italy belonged to that group of powers, consisting of Austria-Hungary, Germany and Italy herself, that were bound together by the Triple Alliance, which had been renewed as late as 1912. Article VI of the Alliance assured Austria-Hungary that she would not be jeopardized by Italy or Germany on the Adriatic Sea. Of more importance to future developments was Article 1 VII, which was aimed at preserving the status quo in the Balkans, and which forbade any power to change the status quo there without previous consultation and a prior agreement upon "reciprocal compensation."
