Municipalities of Slovenia

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Slovenia is divided into 212 municipalities (Slovene: Občine, singular: Slovene: Občina), of which 11 (in bold) are cities (cities municipalities).

Slovene is an official language of all the municipalities. Hungarian is a second official language of 3 municipalities in the Prekmurje region: Dobrovnik/Dobronak, Hodoš/Hodos and Lendava/Lendva. Italian is a second official language of 4 municipalities (of which one has urban status) in the Slovene Littoral region: Ankaran/Ancarano, Izola/Isola, Koper/Capodistria and Piran/Pirano.

The largest municipality in area is Kočevje with 555 km2 (214 sq mi) and the smallest is Odranci with only 7 km2 (2.7 sq mi). The municipality with the highest population is Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, and the one with the lowest population is Hodoš with only 382 people living there.

English names

[change | change source]

The Slovene names have the word "Občina" in front, e.g. "Občina Bled". As an English name, the Statistical Office of Slovenia uses a word by word transformation, e.g. "Municipality Bled".
