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. == Famous natives == *[[Max Fabiani]], architect; *[[Franco Giraldi]], Italian film director; *[[Anton Mahnič]], theologian, activist, [[Diocese of Krk|bishop of Krk]]; *[[Igor Torkar]], writer. ==Towns and villages== [[Image:Štanjel.JPG|thumb|left|230px|Village of [[Štanjel]].]] [[Brestovica pri Komnu]], [[Brje pri Komnu]], [[Coljava]], [[Divči]], [[Dolanci]], [[Čehovini]], [[Čipnje]], [[Gabrovica pri Komnu]], [[Gorjansko]], [[Hruševica]], [[Ivanji Grad]], [[Klanec pri Komnu]], [[Kobdilj]], [[Kobjeglava]], [[Koboli]], [[Kodreti]], '''[[Komen]]''', [[Lisjaki]], [[Lukovec, Komen|Lukovec]], [[Mali Dol, Komen|Mali Dol]], [[Nadrožica]], [[Preserje pri Komnu]], [[Rubije]], [[Sveto]], [[Šibelji]], [[Škofi]], [[Škrbina, Komen|Škrbina]], [[Štanjel]], [[Tomačevica]], [[Trebižani]], [[Tupelče]], [[Vale]], [[Večkoti]], [[Volčji Grad]], [[Zagrajec]] {{Slovenia-municipalities}} [[Category:Cities, towns and villages in Slovenia]] {{slovenia-geo-stub}} [[es:Komen]] [[fr:Komen (Slovénie)]] [[it:Comeno]] [[nl:Komen (Slovenië)]] [[ja:コメン]] [[pl:Komen]] [[ro:Komen]] [[sl:Občina Komen]]
