		Settled in four distinct areas (Styria, Carniola, Carinthia and Gorizia) since the fifth century, Slovenia was later variously dominated by the Bavarians, the Frankish Empire of the Carolingians, and the largely Germanic Holy Roman Empire, which lasted in one form or another from the ninth to the 19th century.
		Slovenia is the only one of the ex-Yugoslav republics to have a substantial, as opposed to a merely nominal, multi-party democracy, although it is on the road to permanent coalition politics with three parties (the customary European mix of center-right, center-left and liberal) as the main contestants.
		Slovenia’s only major outstanding problem in its foreign relations is a long-standing border dispute with Croatia, an aspirant to EU and NATO membership (which Slovenia has tried to veto), which has so far defied solution.

		Following the first free elections in 1990 Slovenia began undergoing a major transformation of two major systems: political (from a non-party system of decentralized self management to a west European-style parliamentary democracy with about a dozen political parties), and economic (from a socialist into a free-market economy).

	Venice Commission - Commission de Venise
		From this perspective, there is no conflict between the decision adopted by referendum and the constitutional amendments of 25 July, as the latter, being of constitutional value, obviously prevails and takes precedence over the decision of “preliminary” legislative character adopted by the referendum.
		This is true also for constitutional systems that establish a co-habitation of popular and parliamentary sovereignty, as is the case of Slovenia where the people are not excluded from the process of constitutional revision (Article 170 of the Constitution of the Republic of Slovenia).
		In this respect the fact that legislative elections are to be held in the near future and the sovereign people will have the opportunity to manifest its approval or disapproval of the National Assembly’s stand is in itself a guarantee for democracy.
