The Slovene Littoral or simply Littoral (Slovene: Primorska, pronounced [pɾiˈmóːɾska] ⓘ;[1] Italian: Litorale; German: Küstenland) is one of the traditional regions of Slovenia. The littoral in its name – for a coastal-adjacent area – recalls the former Austrian Littoral (Avstrijsko Primorje), the Habsburg possessions on the upper Adriatic coast, of which the Slovene Littoral was part. Today, the Littoral is often associated with the Slovenian ethnic territory that, in the first half of the 20th century, found itself in Italy to the west of the Rapallo Border, which separated a quarter of Slovenes from the rest of the nation,[2] and was strongly influenced by Italian fascism.[3][4]
