Venetians

Before the battle of Korčula, the Venetians refused all peace offerings.

The 2020 Venice Carnival opened Saturday with thousands of Venetians and tourists lining the banks of the canals to watch the parade of floats.

Rising waters during the winter months are nothing new for Venetians, who have lived with high and low tides for centuries.

Venetians were woken up at dawn Friday to the wailing of flood sirens and the lapping of water as the already-deluged Italian city was struck by a new tidal surge, further damaging ancient monuments, palaces and churches and striking fear into residents.

They're Venetians.
