Slovakia is mountainous land with picturesque valleys and streams. Once
part of the Great Moravian, Holy Roman, and Austro-Hungarian Empires as
well as Czechoslovakia, Slovakia is learning what it means to be independent.
The birth of the Slovak Republic in 1993 has facilitated the transformation
toward a modern market-oriented economy. Macroeconomic performance has improved
steadily, but privatization progresses only in fits and starts. |
