Comment(by lonvia):

 The county Karlovačka županija comes from the place node 549260451 and is
 wrong (see bug #4247). The state comes from boundary relation 226241 and
 is actually correct. It is confused as a state because Croatia seems to
 use admin_level=4 for its counties instead of the customary admin_level=6.

 To fix this, we'd need an address localisation in Nominatim that maps the
 admin_levels to place types on a country basis.
