Vzhodna Slovenija obsega okrog 12.000 km 2 . Njena lega
na sti~i{~u Alp, Panonske ni‘ine ter Dinarskega gorovja se
odra‘a v veliki pokrajinski raznolikosti regije; severozahodni
alpski del se proti vzhodu ni‘a v vinorodna gri~evja na robu Panonske ni‘ine, proti jugu pa v
kra{ko Dinarsko gorstvo. Zaradi redko poseljenih obmejnih obmo~ij in ve~jih gozdnatih predelov
je gostota poseljenosti tukaj ni‘ja od povpre~ne v dr‘avi. V gospodarskem pogledu velja ta regija
za manj razvito. Zaznamuje jo kmetijska dejavnost, saj se tukaj nahaja ve~ kot 70 % kmetijskih
gospodarstev in ve~ji del kmetijskih zemlji{~. Kljub temu pa kmetijstvo malo prispeva k bruto
dodani vrednosti (BDV). Veliko ve~ prispeva industrijska dejavnost (okrog 40 %), in sicer zdru‘uje
tradicionalne in moderne panoge (rudarstvo, tekstilna, avtomobilska, farmacevtska ter
elektrotehni~na dejavnost). Zaposleni v tej regiji ustvarijo ni‘ji bruto doma~i proizvod in imajo
ni‘je pla~e kot zaposleni v Zahodni Sloveniji, dele‘ brezposelnih med aktivnimi prebivalci pa je v
tej regiji ve~ji. Ta regija ima pomembno vlogo pri energetski oskrbi dr‘ave, saj se na njenem
ozemlju poleg edine jedrske elektrarne nahaja ve~ina energetske infrastrukture. K njeni
prepoznavnosti prispevajo tudi bogata naravna dedi{~ina kra{kega podzemlja, termalni izviri,
tradicionalni pustni obi~aji z znanim pustnim likom kurentom ter najstarej{i doma~i obrti –
suhorobarstvo in lon~arstvo.
Vzhodna Slovenija covers around 12,000 km 2 . Located at the meeting point of the Alps, the
Pannonian Basin and the Dinaric Mountains it reveals diverse landscapes as its north-west Alpine
ridge descends into the wine-growing hills at the edge of the Pannonian Plain in the east
and lowers into the karstified Dinaric Mountains towards the south. The population density is
due to sparsely populated border areas and some large uninhabited areas covered with forests
below the national average. In terms of economy, the region presents a less developed part of
Slovenia. More than 70% of Slovene farms located within it and a high share of arable land
show the importance of agriculture, although a low share of the gross value added (GVA) is
derived from it. The industrial sector comprises traditional and modern industrial branches (mining,
textile, car, pharmaceutical, electronics and electrical appliances), contributing around 40%
to the GVA. Gross domestic product and earnings of persons employed are in this region lower
than in Zahodna Slovenija, while the unemployment rate is higher. With most of the power
plant infrastructure, including the only nuclear power plant in Slovenia, the region is the country’s
energy supplier. The region is not known only for its natural heritage such as the underground
Karst world and thermal springs, but also for its traditional Shrovetide festivities with Kurent as
the most famous figure and traditional handcrafts as woodenware and pottery.
