This is using Wikipedia for blatant nationalistic propaganda and is not based on fact, otherwise it ruined a perfectly good article on this unique individual. Fausto was born Sibenik circa 1551 in Dalmatia, <ref> '''Encyclopedia Britannica'''-Dalmatia:

* Venetian rule, established in 1420 when the king of Croatia, Ladislas of Naples, ceded the country to the Venetian republic, ended in 1797. This period was marked by Venetian warfare against the Turks. When the French gave Venice to [[Austria]] under the Treaty of Campo Formio (1797), Dalmatia became Austrian also; but in 1805, under the Treaty of Pressburg, Austria had to cede Dalmatia to Napoleon. It was returned to Austria after Napoleon’s fall and remained an Austrian crownland until 1918.
 +
*Finally, the Treaty of Rapallo (Nov. 12, 1920) between [[Italy]] and Yugoslavia gave all Dalmatia to the Yugoslavs except the mainland Zadar (Italian: Zara) enclave and the coastal islands of Cres, Losinj (Lussino), and Lastovo. </ref> a region of Republic of Venice in todays modern Croatia. In the 19th century it became a province of the [[Austria|Austro]]-Hungarian Empire (Dalmatia as a region, dates back to the Roman Empire).
