Source-derived summary

Concordia Sagittaria is a comune in the Metropolitan City of Venice, Veneto, Italy.

History

The town was founded in 42 BC as Iulia Concordia by the Romans, where the Via Annia and the Via Postumia crossed each other. The establishment of the Diocese of Concordia dates from c. 380 AD. The city was taken and destroyed by Attila in 452 AD.

After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, it was part of the Lombard duchy of Cividale, and later became part first of the March of Friuli and then the Patriarchate of Aquileia.

In 1420, together with all of Friuli, it was annexed by the Republic of Venice.

In 1838, it was separated from Friuli to be included in the province of Venice.

Editorial analysis

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q47189. VIAF identifies the subject as 138379387. The Library of Congress control number is n81003072.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
