Slovenia (Slovenian Slovenija), republic in southeastern Europe, in the Balkan Peninsula, bounded on the north by Austria, on the northeast by Hungary, on the southeast and south by Croatia, and on the west by Italy and the Adriatic Sea. Formerly a constituent republic of Yugoslavia, Slovenia proclaimed its independence in June 1991. It joined the United Nations (UN) in May 1992. The republic has an area of 20,253 sq km (7,820 sq mi). Ljubljana is the capital and largest city. In 2000 the country had an estimated population of 1,970,056, giving it an overall population density of 97 persons per sq km (252 per sq mi). Slovenes, a Slavic ethnic group, constitute about 88 percent of the republic's population. Ethnic Serbs (about 2 percent), Croats (about 3 percent), and various other ethnic groups (about 7 percent) constitute the remainder of Slovenia's population. Slovenes speak Slovenian, the republic's official language. Some 52 percent of all Slovenes live in urban areas, particularly in Ljubljana (population, 1995 estimate, 269,972) and Maribor (103,113), the republic's two largest cities. Many of the remainder live in rural areas throughout the republic, particularly in alpine villages, where skiing is one of the most popular forms of recreation.
