I am reading Joseph Roth's "The Radetzky March." In it, the heroes are
knighted by the Emperor Franz Josef and take the name Trotta von Sipolje.
Is there a town in Slovenia called Sipolje?

I don't really know. Only I know Roth puts Slovenia wrongly on the southern edge of the monarchy. Neither there would be a mosque in the village....

Hi. Reading this too. He says 'Slovenia' but there are and there were no mosques in Slovenia; he must have been thinking of Bosnia.
