Slakovci, Settlement in Stari Jankovci, Croatia.

Slakovci extends across 17.6 square kilometers of eastern Croatia, positioned at 45.219 degrees latitude and 18.948 degrees longitude within Vukovar-Srijem County.

Historical records first documented Slakovci in 1491, followed by Ottoman control from 1526 to 1691 when the Gorjanski family built a defensive fort.

The settlement's name derives from either 'slak', denoting a regional weed, or the Hungarian term 'slavok', reflecting the area's linguistic connections.

The D46 state road connects Slakovci to Vinkovci and extends into Serbia as State Road 120, facilitating transportation throughout the eastern region.

The settlement maintains a population of 701 residents as of 2021, with inhabitants specifically termed Slakovčanin for males and Slakovčanka for females.
