After some searching I found my list of Slovenian and Croatian locomotives.

Slovenia, at least in 1995 kept the old JZ numbers.

They have three classes of electric locomotive:
342 Bo-Bo built by ASGEN 1968
362 Bo-Bo-Bo built by Ansaldo and ASGEN 1962 to 1967
363 Co-Co built by Alsthom

Alsthom is French and Ansaldo is Italian. I think ASGEN might be Italian too.

These are all 3000v DC locomotives, while most Croatian Electric locos are 25kV AC.

Croatia has Ansaldo 362 (1061.0), ASGEN 362 (1061.1) and rebuilt class 1161.

The 1061 were rebuilt by Koncar, apparently.

Where does the 3000V DC system operate in Croatia?

Here are Croatia electric series as they are now:

1061, Ansaldo, built in Italy,

1141, Asea (Swedish from 60's) but built in Koncar. Today Koncar makes "remakes" of these, modernized with digital technology, but original exterior design
http://www.hznet.hr/hr/vuca/vucna_vozila/serija1141.htm

1142 Koncar built, but "inspired" by Italian design (obviously)
http://www.hznet.hr/hr/vuca/vucna_vozila/serija1142.htm

There are some more Koncar locomotives, that are not used in Croatia.

and as for where 3000V is used, I don't know
