Formerly part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Slovakia is situated in the very heart of Europe. After the Austro-Hungarian Empire broke up, Slovakia, then Czechoslovakia, became part of the Third Reich. At the fall of that regime, Communism became Slovakia's government up until 1991. At that point, Czechoslovakia split into the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic (aka Slovakia).
