Fascist period variant - The reason for the variant may well
be the five-pointed star association with the unity of Italy
("La Gran Stella d'Italia", even if it should be
pointing down), and could be (yet another) attempt to italianise
this region recently annexed from Austria. On the other hand it
could be plain anti-semitism, due to the six-pointed star
association with the Jewish star of David.
