# Hungary and Slovenia compared Hungary and Slovenia side by side: 42 shared sourced indicators across 9 domains, and the 1 events their chronicles record of each other. Canonical: https://terralore.co/compare/hun-vs-svn Updated: 2026-08-10 (latest of the two dossiers' refreshes and the two chronicles' verification dates) Two sourced records set beside each other — nothing on this page was written for the pair. Every figure is the same observation, with the same source, as on the two national dossiers; every event is the same record, with the same sources, as on its own chronicle. Figures are compared, never graded. A "—" is an absence in the source data, never a zero; each value shows its own observation year — vintages differ by indicator and nation. ## Formation - Hungary: 1000 — Stephen I is crowned and founds the Christian kingdom of Hungary - Slovenia: 1991 — Slovenia wins its independence from Yugoslavia ## Economy | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | GDP | $223 B | 2024 | $73 B | 2024 | | GDP per capita | $23,292 | 2024 | $34,301 | 2024 | | GDP growth | 0.6% | 2024 | 1.7% | 2024 | | Inflation | 3.7% | 2024 | 2.0% | 2024 | | Trade openness | 146.5% | 2024 | 155.7% | 2024 | ## Society | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | Population | 9.6 m | 2024 | 2.1 m | 2024 | | Life expectancy | 76.7 yrs | 2024 | 82.3 yrs | 2024 | | Urban population | 70.5% | 2024 | 55.8% | 2024 | | Fertility rate | 1.4 | 2024 | 1.5 | 2024 | ## Governance | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | Voice & accountability | 56.4 | 2024 | 75.4 | 2024 | | Political stability | 73.3 | 2024 | 78.2 | 2024 | | Government effectiveness | 61.1 | 2024 | 72.5 | 2024 | | Regulatory quality | 60.1 | 2024 | 67.5 | 2024 | | Rule of law | 60.3 | 2024 | 73.8 | 2024 | | Control of corruption | 48.7 | 2024 | 61.5 | 2024 | ## Health | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | Health spending | 6.4% | 2023 | 9.9% | 2024 | | Physicians | 3.46 | 2022 | 3.37 | 2022 | | Under-5 mortality | 3.7 | 2024 | 2.3 | 2024 | | Measles immunisation | 99.0% | 2024 | 95.0% | 2024 | | Safe drinking water | 100.0% | 2024 | 99.6% | 2024 | ## Education | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | Education spending | 3.8% | 2022 | 5.3% | 2022 | | Primary enrolment | 102.9% | 2024 | 100.9% | 2023 | | Secondary enrolment | 107.4% | 2024 | 107.6% | 2023 | | Tertiary enrolment | 60.5% | 2024 | 80.1% | 2023 | ## Technology | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | R&D spending | 1.4% | 2023 | 2.1% | 2023 | | Researchers (per million) | 4,567 | 2023 | 5,616 | 2023 | | Internet users | 93.8% | 2024 | 90.8% | 2024 | | Mobile subscriptions | 105 | 2024 | 131 | 2024 | | High-tech exports | 22.6% | 2024 | 8.3% | 2024 | ## Geography | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | Land area | 91,260 km² | 2023 | 20,135 km² | 2023 | | Forest area | 22.4% | 2023 | 61.2% | 2023 | | Agricultural land | 55.7% | 2023 | 30.4% | 2023 | | CO₂ per capita (t) | 4.5 | 2024 | 6.3 | 2024 | | Renewable energy | 15.3% | 2021 | 23.4% | 2021 | ## Resources | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | Resource rents | 0.4% | 2021 | 0.2% | 2021 | | Oil rents | 0.2% | 2021 | 0.0% | 2021 | | Mineral rents | 0.0% | 2021 | 0.0% | 2021 | | Forest rents | 0.1% | 2021 | 0.2% | 2021 | | Electricity access | 100.0% | 2023 | 100.0% | 2023 | ## Military | Metric | Hungary | Observed | Slovenia | Observed | |---|---|---|---|---| | Military burden | 2.2% | 2024 | 1.3% | 2024 | | Defense spending | $4.7 B | 2024 | $952 M | 2024 | | Armed forces | 46,000 | 2020 | 7,000 | 2020 | Each metric is also ranked across all nations: https://terralore.co/rankings (markdown twins at /rankings/.md).
