The International Stadium, popularly known as the Jiangwan Racecourse or Kiangwan Racecourse, was a horse racing complex located in Shanghai. Established in 1911 as an alternative to the Shanghai Race Club, which did not accept Chinese clientele, the course grew to host more than twenty races a year, as well as a golf course, basketball court, and tennis courts. Beginning in the 1920s, it was taxed, contributing thousands of yuan to the municipal government and stimulating the growth of Jiangwan. The racecourse hosted troops on several occasions, including prisoners taken during the Second Zhili–Fengtian War in 1924 as well as Kuomintang troops during the Northern Expedition. During the Battle of Shanghai in 1937, the Imperial Japanese Army captured the racecourse, which was heavily damaged. The land was subsequently repurposed for agriculture; As of 2000, it is used for housing and industry.

The March of Istria, or the Margraviate of Istria was a historical frontier county, or march centered on the Istrian peninsula. It was established after the Carolingian conquest at the end of the 8th century, and continued to exist in various territorial scopes and administrative forms within the Holy Roman Empire, consequently becoming integrated into the Austrian Kingdom of Illyria, and the Austrian Littoral. In time it lost its most western (coastal) regions, that became pat of the Venetian Istria, while the Istrian frontier county, or march was reduced to central and eastern parts of the Istrian peninsula. Those regions were reintegrated after 1797, and the reunited Istrian march was finally abolished in 1918.
