Aosta Valley

edit

fr. Vallée d'Aoste – it. Valle d'Aosta: [French names to 1861] - 1939–1947

Under Mussolini, a forced program of Italianization that included the translation of all toponyms into Italian occurred. As the region gained special autonomous status after the end of World War Two, the province of Aosta ceased to exist in 1945 and all the original French toponyms were reestablished as all the Italian ones were abolished, except from Aosta (co-official with the French Aoste).
