	Slovakia at AllExperts
		Slovak settlements extended to the northern half of present-day Hungary, while the ethnic composition of present-day Slovakia itself became more diverse due to the arrival of the Carpathian Germans (from the 13th century), Vlachs (from the 14th century), and Hungarians (from the late Middle Ages).
		The Slovak landscape is noted primarily for its mountainous nature, with the Carpathian Mountains extending across most of the northern half of the country.
		The Slovak climate is temperate, with relatively warm summers and cold, cloudy and humid winters.

		In the 10th century, the ethnic Slovak territory included the northern half of present-day Hungary, and in the 14th century it still extended to present-day northern central and northern eastern Hungary (down to present-day Vác (in Slovak Vacov), Visegrád (''Vi&353;egrad/Vy&353;ehrad''), Miskolc (''Mi&353;kovec'')).
		The Slovak climate is temperate, with relatively cool summers and cold, cloudy and humid winters.

	Coin Collecting - European currency circulation (e-day)
		he introduction of the euro was a key test of the success of Europe's biggest project, the economic and monetary union.
		From spring to autumn 2000 the Eurobarometer poll detected a drop in support for the euro from 58% to 55%, however spring 2001 saw a rebound to 59%.
		The objective was to ensure that the general public and professional cash handlers, in both the eurozone and other countries, were informed about the denominations of euro banknotes and coins, the visual appearance of euro banknotes and coins, the security features and the changeover modalities.

	The Internationalist
		The coins are minted with the different backsides in each country and have turned into collectible items for people all over Europe - a coin from Finland or the Vatican is worth more than the amount it stands for, since so few were minted compared to the numbers of those from Germany or France.
		At the same time, the introduction of the Euro was a very political act, as the economic effects of the Euro are similar to the effects of fixed exchange rates, but carries a greater economic symbolism with it.
		The Euro may be the last visible political process capable of bringing the citizens of the EU together before EU enlargement in 2004- and if it does not succeed, the enlarged EU may continue to be plagued by a gap between the European institutions and its citizens.

	OECD Observer: The euro: laying down the challenge
		Nevertheless, the logistics of the switch were formidable: 50 billion new coins were minted and 14.5 billion new banknotes printed, all of which had to be delivered to the right place at the right time, for a total value of €664 billion.
		Although banknotes are identical throughout the euro zone and coins have a common side, the flip side of the coins is minted with symbols specific to each country, adding to initial confusion as the money spreads across member borders.
		Some 120 different types of coins are in circulation at the same time (12 series of eight coins issued by each member state, plus the Vatican, San Marino and Monaco), enough to cause headaches for at least some of the 305 million inhabitants of the euro zone.

	The Euro
		The euro (currency code: EUR) is the official currency of the European Union (as stated in article I-8 of the Treaty Establishing a Constitution for Europe), and the EMU is the process by which EU member states replace their national currency with the euro and transfer management of monetary policy to the European Central Bank.
		During the transition phase, in which the national currency and the euro co-exist, a process called "triangulation", which is supported by applications such as Currency Server, WorldCalc and Euro Calculator, is required to convert to and from the national currency and any non-EMU currencies.
		Also in consideration of the fact that euro banknotes and coins are already in circulation, the changeover scenario applied to the first twelve participating member states may not be appropriate or desirable for future euro-area entrants.

		The recent practice, especially in economic texts, of using the name Slovak Republic instead of Slovakia, when the terms Hungary, Slovenia etc. are used in the same text, is therefore awkward, arising in analogy to the use of the term Czech Republic, but that is (partly) another problem (see Czech Republic, Czech lands).
		In the revolution of 1848-49 the Slovaks joined the Austrians to separate from the Kingdom of Hungary within the Austrian monarchy, but eventually they failed to achieve this aim.
		Slovakia would like to adopt the Euro currency on 1 January 2009, although the public sector deficit needs to be cut in the draft budget from its current 3.8 percent of GDP to below 3 percent in order for this to be possible.
