Kordun

The Kordun region is a part of central Croatia from the bottom of the Petrova Gora mountain range, which extends along the rivers Korana and Slunjčica, and forms part of the border region to Bosnia and Herzegovina. Within Croatia, Kordun is bordered by the Lika region to the south and by Banovina or Banija to the east.

Name
The name Kordun was created during the period of the Military Frontier and is closely related to the strategic significance of the region. It comes from the French word "cordon militaire" which translates into military belt. In this case, it refers to a series of former linked guardhouses and forts with the aim of repelling armies coming from the formerly Turkish controlled territory of western Bosnia. ==See also==
