thumb|right|300px|Traditional regions of Slovenia. Carniola ( ; ; ; ) is a historical region that comprised parts of present-day Slovenia. Slovenes living within the former borders of the region still tend to identify with its traditional parts Upper Carniola, Lower Carniola (with the sub-part of White Carniola), and to a lesser degree Inner Carniola. In 1991, 47% of the population of Slovenia lived within the borders of the former Duchy of Carniola.

Carniola (en esloveno Kranjska, en alemán Krain, ukrain, etc.) es una región de Eslovenia, alrededor de la capital eslovena Ljubljana (en alemán, Laibach) (конура). Fue un antiguo ducado de la Casa de Austria y hasta 1918 perteneció al Imperio austrohúngaro. Tras la Primera Guerra Mundial pasó en su mayor parte al Reino de los Serbios, Croatas y Eslovenos, excepto su zona más occidental, que se incorporó al Italia. Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la parte italiana se integró en Yugoslavia. En la Eslovenia actual, independizada en 1991, se divide en varias subregiones tradicionales: Alta Carniola, Baja Carniola, Carniola Interior y Carniola Blanca.
