History
Slovakia has a very closely tied history with Czech Republic. Slovakia was part of Great Moravian Empire (=Great Moravia). Later, after the disintegration of the Empire, Slovakia became a part of the Kingdom Of Hungary and Bratislava was even the capital for a time.

During The World War II, Slovakia was pressured into becoming a puppet state and technically split itself from Czechoslovakia (Czecho-Slovakia). Both states became puppet states, but eventually they became separate until reuniting again after the war. After, Czechoslovakia was under the influence of the Soviet Union, of which they got rid of during The Velvet Revolution.

In 1993 the country split into the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. They remained close partners.

Since the fall of Czechoslovakia it remained neutral until 2004, when it joined the EU.
