Slovakia (former republic)

    0.28 sec.

Slovakia

One of the two republics that formed the Federative Republic of Czechoslovakia. Settled in the 5th-6th centuries by Slavs; it was occupied by the Magyars in the 10th century, and was part of the kingdom of Hungary until 1918, when it became a province of Czechoslovakia. Slovakia was a puppet state under German domination 1939-45, and was abolished as an administrative division in 1949. Its capital and chief town was Bratislava. It was re-established as a sovereign state, the Slovak Republic, after the break-up of Czechoslovakia in 1993.
