The Adriatic Sea is the sea to the right side of Italy, separating it from the Balkan Peninsula. It is mentioned in line 269 of "Eighteen Hundred and Eleven", "Venice the Adriatic weds in vain." In 1811, during the Napoleonic Wars, the Adriatic Sea was a minor theatre or area of military importance. The British Royal Navy would often patrol there and some naval battles occurred there, including the Battle of Lissa.
