Synopsis:
This handsome book covers a wide range of nations -- the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania, Poland, and Hungary -- and is loaded with valuable information about all of them. Topics covered include the often painful struggle these nations underwent in order to achieve freedom and independence, the value of their goods and services in the global market, their wise installation of parliamentary democracies and free-market economies, their laws, landscape, climate, agriculture, modes of transportation, and the daily lives of the people who live there. The entire volume is beautifully illustrated with full-color photography and further aided by dozens of graphs, maps, and fact charts.
