From Wikipedia: Carinthia (German: Kärnten, German pronunciation: [ˈkɛɐ̯ntn̩] (listen); Slovene: Koroška, pronunciation ; Italian: Carinzia) is the southernmost Austrian state or Land. Situated within the Eastern Alps, it is noted for its mountains and lakes. The main language is German. Its regional dialects belong to the Southern Bavarian group. Carinthian Slovene dialects, which predominated in the southeastern part of the region up to the first half of the 20th century, are now spoken by a small minority.
Carinthia's main industries are tourism, electronics, engineering, forestry, and agriculture. The multinational corporations Philips, Infineon and Siemens have large operations there.

A possible etymology of the name „Carantani" is that it may have been formed from a toponymic base carant- which ultimately derives from pre-Indo-European root *karra meaning „rock" (cf.
