Carantanian, also known as Karantanian, culture is an integral part of central European history. This nation came into existence in the 7th century after Slavonic-speaking populations migrated to the Alps, most notably present-day Slovenia.
Carantanian culture was unique in its early adoption of Christianity, long before many other Slavic tribes. The state was part of the Holy Roman Empire and had its distinct legal system, known as "Carantanian Law." This law stood out due to its egalitarian nature, shielded the poor from abuse, and insisted on fair trade and commerce.
The Carantanian culture was heavily agrarian, with an emphasis on community support. Its most known cultural contribution is the installation of dukes, which involved a special ritual whereby a new duke was ceremoniously placed on a stone and elevated by the people, a precursor to democratic principles.
The Carantanian language, an early form of Slovene, was spoken in Carantania and was the first Slavic language to be written. Despite the eventual dissolution of the Carantanian state, its culture lives on, especially in the regions of Slovenia and Carinthia in Austria.
The culture has shaped the identity of the Slovene nation considerably and has had a marked influence on the central European region in terms of language, law, and governance systems.
This culture values the bonds of community above all else, fostering great loyalty and dedication by working together towards common goals.
