Only very few countries, even considerably larger ones, can boast the landscape diversity found in Slovenia since the Alps, the Pannonian Basin, the Dinaric Alps, and the Mediterranean meet and interweave in this small corner of Central Europe, as do Germanic, Hungarian, Slavic, and Romance cultural influences. The book provides a systematical overview of physical and human geographical elements of Slovenia from landforms to cultural characteristics. Special attention is given to landscape diversity, to the presentation of Slovene landscape types and regions, to some particularities and interesting facts of Slovenia, and to the position of Slovenia in the World. The book also illustrates some other important geographical phenomena, processes and interactions between nature and society in nowadays Slovenia. This volume appeals to researchers as well as students in the field of regional geography. It can also serve as a source for complete background information as well as a field guide for Slovenia. 410 0$aWorld Regional Geography Book Series,$x2363-9083 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aCity planning 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aWorld Regional Geography (Continents, Countries, Regions)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J19000 606 $aHuman Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X26000 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 606 $aPhysical Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J16000 606 $aEconomic Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J12000 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aCity planning. 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 14$aWorld Regional Geography (Continents, Countries, Regions). 615 24$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 615 24$aPhysical Geography. 615 24$aEconomic Geography. 676 $a910 676 $a914.973 702 $aPerko$b Drago$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCigli?$b Rok$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aZorn$b Matija$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910366649603321 996 $aThe Geography of Slovenia$92202174 997 $aUNINA
