Trebnje
Trebnje (, german: Treffen) is a town in southeastern Slovenia. Trebnje lies on the Temenica, Temenica River in the traditional region of Lower Carniola. The area was already settled in Antiquity. The modern settlement developed on the main regional road and railway line from Ljubljana to Novo Mesto. The old town center with the parish church stands slightly raised on the left bank of Temenica River, and the new part extends to the north from the railway line and the regional road toward Novo Mesto. Trebnje is the centre of the Municipality of Trebnje. Name Trebnje was attested in historical sources in 1163 as ''Treuen'' (and as ''Treven'' in 1228, ''Trefen'' in 1389, and ''Treben'' in 1437). The name is believed to be a clipped form of ''Trěbьńe selo'' 'Trěbъ's village', presumably referring to an early inhabitant of the place. A less likely theory derives the name from the verb *''trěbiti'' 'to clean, clear (land)', thus referring to an area cleared for settlement. Anothe ...

Ljubljana (also known by other historical names) is the capital and largest city of Slovenia. It is the country's cultural, educational, economic, political and administrative center. During antiquity, a Roman city called Emona stood in the area. Ljubljana itself was first mentioned in the first half of the 12th century. Situated at the middle of a trade route between the northern Adriatic Sea and the Danube region, it was the historical capital of Carniola, one of the Slovene-inhabited parts of the Habsburg monarchy. It was under Habsburg rule from the Middle Ages until the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1918. After World War II, Ljubljana became the capital of the Socialist Republic of Slovenia, part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The city retained this status until Slovenia became independent in 1991 and Ljubljana became the capital of the newly formed state. Name The origin of the name ''Ljubljana'' is unclear.
