Carinthia Halal Explorer

Carinthia is possibly the most autonomous state in Austria (with the possible exception of Tyrol). Older than Austria itself, it has always been fairly isolated from its surroundings by its geography. Carinthians are rooted and proud, but also have a reputation for being more warm-hearted than other Austrians.

There are several explanations of where the name Carinthia comes from. For example, it is said to be derived from the Celtic word carant, which means friend. Other explanations assume that the name comes from the Celtic word karanto, which means stone.

Cartinthia is a very mountainous area sandwiched by the Alps in the north, and the Karawanken in the south.It shares a border with both Italy and Slovenia.

Carinthia was home to the infamous right-wing populist Jörg Haider and for a long time his political vehicles had their biggest successes there.
