Road conditions in White Carniola from the mid-18th century to World War I

Abstract

In the 18^th and 19^th centuries White Carniola had appropriate transport connections between individual cities, towns and villages, but poor links to the rest of Carniola. Despite the border and the Kolpa river, the province had better connections to Croatia. The situation began to change at the end of the 19^th and the early 20^th century, just prior to World War I, when White Carniola, too, obtained a railway connection to Carniola on one hand and Croatia on the other.
