Talk:Upper Carniola

Kreis
The statement that Upper Carniola "was a kreis of the historical Habsburg crown land of Carniola from 1849 till 1919" is wrong. I don't know exactly when the old Kreis system was abolished, but during most of the constitutional period (1860-1918), Carniola was divided into much smaller Kreise (Upper Carniola consisted, if I'm not mistaken, of at least three: Radovljica, Kranj and Ljubljana). The division into Upper, Inner and Lower Carniola is much older, I think from the mid 18th century, and ceased to be and administrative reality by mid 19th century, but the terms remained.
