'''Komen''' ({{lang-it|Comeno}}) is a village and a [[municipality]] in [[Slovenia]]. It is located on the [[Kras]] plateau in the [[Slovenian Littoral]].
== History ==
In the [[Middle Ages]], it was first part of the [[Duchy of Friuli]] and in the 13th century it was included in the [[County of Gorizia]]. Komen was first mentioned in a document from 1247. In 1500, the whole region fell under [[Habsburg]] dominion and it was included in the [[County of Gorizia and Gradisca]] until 1918. During [[World War One]], the western parts of the municipality were devastated by the [[Battles of the Isonzo]]. After the end of the war in November 1918, the area was occupated by [[Kingdom of Italy (1861-1946)|Italian]] troops and annexed to [[Italy]] with the [[Treaty of Rapallo]] in 1920. On February 15 1944, the village of Komen was burned down by the [[Nazi German]] troops as a retailliation for [[Partisans (Yugoslavia)|Partisan resistance]] activity in the area; the surviving inhabinats were forcibily resettled to [[Bavaria]], from where they only returned after the end of [[World War II]]. In 1947, it became part of the [[Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia]] and in 1991 of independent Slovenia.
