The most beautiful and peaceful country I know! I'm there once a year, sometimes twice a year. It can't be compared with germany (where I'm from) - more lovely and lovable! Slovenija - Slovenia - Slowenien
I have been to Slovenia 5 months ago.... I am in love with that country. I visited to so many places in Europe but my heart Stayed in Slovenia. I will be back!
Interesting documentary on Slovenia and it's economy. The violinist was awesome.The countryside is beautiful. Too bad more people don't know about this amazing little gem! I would love to visit it some day...
Ich bin sehr begeistert dass die Leute auf dises Video so gut Deutsch sprechen. Sehr nette Leute und eine wunderschoene Natur - das ist in kurz der Slovenien, Viele herzliche Gruesse aus Bulgarien!
Been to Slovenia. Beautiful place and warm people. Enjoyed the trip to lake Bled and also some cave complexes. Also came to know that it was part of Hungary once.
Slovenia has always had great potential to be well developed. The reason it isn't is mainly loosing strategic land and assets that it already developed to neighbour countries in the past. Namely we lost our center of education to Austria via Carinthian Plebiscite because of fear of Yugoslavia and we lost our most economically important city Trst (now called Trieste) to Italy due to Italian immigrants becoming a majority there and a whole chaos of political manipulations during the world wars.
Italian immigrants in Trieste?? Lets not forget who the entire region belonged to, the Venetian Republic. Also, it was Hapsburg land anyway, Slovenes didn't lose anything...
MihaiRUdeRO Sure, that's why Slovenians live outside their borders and consider themselves Slovenians. OF COURSE WE LOST TRIESTE, I'm not stupid! Look at the weird borders between Italy and Slovenia, they are bullshit; they were an attempt to landlock Slovenia so it would easier to conquer it. It's military tactics. During the two world wars, there was plenty of very believable motives to be a big mean bully to Slovenia and so Italy was!
MihaiRUdeRO Triest was in Hapsburg private hands most of the time (99%), therefore remark Italian immigrants is correct if we don't count Romance speaking population which derived their language directly from vulgar Latin.
True European nationalism will fix all of the issues, for a Europe of real nationalists would be a people who love their own nations and love all nations. To love one's own country, the Italians should return to Italy and increase their birthrates. Immigration = invasion. Visitors are welcome, but immigrant invaders are not.
1Fireskull Yeah, the worst are missionaries and political immigrants. I think spreading religion and foreign nationalism should be illegal for non-citizens. I'd like to go further than that, but baby steps.
Yes it is true that we are the one of the most safe countries on the world...I am not really satisfied with EU, cause when we came in to this union our contry become not so rich. But I fault our politics for all our troubles. We would be much better than Switz
Matic Murn I am in Ljubljana right now and was in Maribor for a few days before here and it truly does feel completely safe. I watched a travel blogger's video today and he said he was scared and nervous about visiting a dangerous country when he came here. Funny how some people do absolutely no research before going to a new country.
So do not blame the EU. Blame your own fellow citizens for choosing bad politicians. Blaming the EU only distracts from the real problem and delays the necessary solutions. Good luck :)
@@movingshapes Indeed it is fault of politicians, but even EU it self makes me sick, not because things gone bad after the enter in the EU, but i hate everything what EU represent.
Fact is, that this country has much more potential than most of others in EU. On the other hand, much of this potential is left unused due to too much paperwork and bureaucracy. For instance, there are lots of woods but almost no sawmills. Even if the wood is in your keeping, you still need a woodcutter who can decide what do cut. And in most cases, there are no trees to be brought down and sold. It is not the only area of such nonsense. Only 1 among other 100000 cases.
The EU is just another acronym for USSR style bureaucracy. That sounds bad. Do you need a license to be a sawmill? I know the EU thinks it is supposed to regulate every little part of someone's life.
pompei1968 "Trieste" is Slovenian ancestral land. It was stolen from us in a desperate ploy to landlock Slovenia from the Adriatic, in fear of Yugoslavia.
***** I'm not arguing with you but I have a question. If it was an attempt to land lock Slovenia, which it obviously didn't do, how could it also be done out of fear of Yugoslavia which had huge access to the Adriatic? In other words, if it was in fear of Yugoslavia having access to the Adriatic how, in anyway did it hinder Yugoslavia's access to the Adriatic?
BigSirZebras I honestly can't answer that. Though, perhaps it was because Italy was promised Slovenia and controlled Istra for some time. They wanted to keep as much as they could. Plus, Yugoslavia wasn't really a stable country. Should it break apart, as it did, landlocking Slovenia completely would eliminate competition in the Adriatic. Though, while we do complain about it, I suppose we're friends now. We even lended aid to them stopping illegal immigration with our only military ship.
Ok, I am reading about a lot of this right now because I am on vacation visiting a lot of cities in central Europe, currently in Ljubljana and going to Trieste in a couple days. Trieste was a part of the Habsburg empire and then Austria-Hungary since about 1300 until WWI when it was annexed by Italy in agreement that they would join the allies. In 1911 only 12% of the city spoke Slovenian. I think it probably looks more Slovenian and has more of a Slovene feel than Italian but I think that is based on the whole area being under Habsburg and Austrian rule for so long.
I dont remember ever being under Hungary, only a very small part of the country was before 1918. Anyway to honest i dont really care if we re under Hungary, Austria, Yugoslavia, EU or whatever. Just want to have good conditions for living.
Slovenians are a good people with many virtues. If native Europeans do not deal with the immigrant invasion, then this precious nation and noble values will perish with all the other nations of Europe into the black Abyss forever.
aviomaster Only nationalists have the dedication to restore Europe and secure liberty for future generations of our children. We are growing everywhere in Europe now and you must have noticed that we have nearly control of some nations in the next election. Join us and be active in the liberation movement of Europe so we can stop the traitor political parties and invasions.
aviomaster The European Union is a puppet of The New World Order beast. The USA is already in the belly of the beast. Europe is next unless the liberators of Europe get busy.
It's nice to view and travel too, and to try to appreciate. It is especially difficult coming from vastly different places. It first requires that one tries to turn off the self point of view. My appreciation for this place comes with a warning. I have seen my country change, America, and it has been difficult in many ways; stratification and marginalization and homogenization of culture. I see it happening to in Easter Europe. It is so easy for big countries and their big multinational business to come in and take market share, and strip a place of it's identity. I have seen here in America, that many towns and cities are becoming alike, very corporate façade, so as it is difficult to say where one is at a moment. I see that to in East. Europe countries. I started with BG in 2000, still very isolated then, suffering from decoupling from the USSR. Now big companies, German like BILA and LIDL swoop in and set up distribution centers and large (Hypermarkets) full of goods from all over, especially China. Yes they employ local workers. But the profits go back to Germany. And the manufacturing is Asia. So how did BG prosper?
