SLOVAKIA
slovakia: No longer seen as the poor half of Czechoslovakia, Slovakia looks set to become one of the next big EU success stories. The capital, Bratislava, is growing at a phenomenal rate due to internal and international migration, while tourists are also beginning to find their way to attractive countryside and emerging ski destinations...After a transitional period following its split from the Czech Republic, Slovakia is a country that is going from strength to strength. Bratislava has had a makeover, while there is a healthy tourism market to the spa retreats and mountains of the Tatras. This, allied with good domestic growth makes it a market with real potential. |
