From about 900 AD until the 20th century, Carniola's ruling classes and urban areas spoke [[German language|German]], while the peasantry spoke [[Slovene language|Slovene]].

The capital of Carniola, originally located at [[Kranj]] ({{langx|de|Krainburg}}), was briefly moved to [[Kamnik]] ({{langx|de|Stein}}) and finally to the current capital of Slovenia, [[Ljubljana]] ({{langx|de|Laibach}}).
