Slovakia

"Slovakia has a lot of tanks to use in combat, borovička, slivovitz and beer to drink, halušky, the cod salad called treska, bryndza, fried cheese and horalky to eat, ice hockey to play, and the times when there was Great Moravia and the First Slovak Republic to reminisce. However, it suffered such politics of its own, such as Fico, Dzuringa, Mečiar and Kotlebaa, including Hungarians, European muslims and its Hungarian disapora in Upper Hungary. Now there was a thunderstorm in the Tatra Mountains, just as a signal that Slovakia is dying. Could that signal the reunification of Czechoslovakia?"
