Slovenia
Slovenia, north of Croatia, is the meeting point for four major geographic features: the Alps, the Dinaric Alps, the Pannonian Plain, and the Mediterranean, making the nation a crossroads of cultural and trade routes in southeastern Europe.
Slovenia was also a part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in the decades following the Second World War, gaining independence in 1991 and transitioning to a parliamentary republic and open market economy. It has a comparatively low population density; some 60% of the nation is covered by forest, and it features dense river networks. Karst topography is named for the Karst Plateau in Slovenia, where water has eroded carbonate bedrock, creating networks of caverns and underground river ways.
The combination low human population density, coupled with extensive natural terrain and river networks may contribute to the number of sightings recorded by UNICORN, the UNISON Special Command responsible for “reality incursions.” Experts believe some wilderness areas of Slovenia interface with the interdimensional realm known as “Faerie,” inhabited by supernatural beings. The most recent report is of a blue-skinned “ice queen” named Bora appearing to visitors to the Slovenian Alps.
