Grosuplje (; german: Großlupp)''Leksikon občin kraljestev in dežel zastopanih v državnem zboru,'' vol. 6: ''Kranjsko''. 1906. Vienna: C. Kr. Dvorna in Državna Tiskarna, p. 108. is a town in central Slovenia. It is the seat of the Municipality of Grosuplje. It lies just south of the capital Ljubljana in the traditional region of Lower Carniola. It is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region. Name Grosuplje was first attested in written sources in 1136 as ''Groslupp'' (and as ''Grasslupp'' in 1220–50, and ''Grazlup'' in 1249). The settlement is known as ''Grasuple'' in the local dialect.

Prime Minister Of Slovenia
The prime minister of Slovenia, officially the president of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia ( sl, Predsednik Vlade Republike Slovenije), is the head of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia. There have been nine officeholders since the country gained parliamentary democracy in 1989 and independence in 1991.

He is then formally elected by a simple majority of the National Assembly. If no candidate receives a majority, a new vote must be held within 14 days.

If no candidate is elected after a third round, then the legislature is automatically dissolved pending new elections. In practice, since the appointee must command a major ...
