The Zagora (), sometimes also called the Dalmatian Zagora ((クロアチア語:Dalmatinska Zagora)) or the Dalmatian Hinterland (which is the rough meaning of the term "''zagora''"), is the southern inland region of Croatia. The name ''Zagora'' means "behind hills", which is a reference to the fact that it is the part of Dalmatia that is not coastal. ==Geography== Zagora, in the strict sense, spans from Šibenik eastern hinterland to east, where it borders with Herzegovina and Livanjski kraj. Its borders are present in two counties: Split-Dalmatia and Šibenik-Knin. The terrain in Zagora is fairly rugged: in the region immediately bordering the coastline, it is mostly flat but dry, mainly covered with ''makija'' (maquis, macchia). More inland, there tend to be more greener pastures, as the climate and elevations change. Karst topography dominates the landscape. The land is interspersed with river canyons, of Krka, Čikola, Cetina and others. One national park is located in Zagora, the Krka National Park. The aforementioned geographical and climate conditions influenced the life patterns of the historically important shepherd population: in the wintertime, they were moving their numerous flocks from the mountains to the coast. Historic population of Zagora has included the Illyrians and the Vlachs. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zagora (Croatia)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
