Slovakia, The Slovak Republic updated Fri Dec 21 2007 8:18 am CST
21.12.2007 | 06:18:31 Slovakia (Slovak: Slovensko) is a landlocked republic in Central Europe. It borders the Czech Republic and Austria in the west, Poland in the north, Ukraine in the east and Hungary in the south. Slovakia is a member of the European Union and has a population of more than five million. The capital is Bratislava. In this lens I hope to give you a good overview of everything Slovakia including the history, steps to freedom, politics, people, and geography. Since I first created this lens, I've found so many excellent YouTube videos which I've selected to showcase to give you a better feel for The Slovak Republic. Some videos that really "touched" me include the "Hidden History" of Slovakia and many showing the Roma or gypsies. I hope you enjoy what I've presented here! P.S.
