The history of the people living in the area of Slovakia goes back several thousand years. In the Bronze Age (400 B.C) under the influence of the Celts, who moved into the area of south-western Slovakia, that the country begun to boom. At the same time the Romans built a 'Limus Romanus' on the Danube which was a European equivalent to Hadrian's Wall.

When the Habsburgs took over from the early kings and queens – Bratislava itself became the jewel in the crown. In 1526 Bratislava became the capital of the Empire. During the reign of Maria Theresia in the 18th century the country prospered and Bratislava prospered, as it was the Queen's favourite residence. The prosperous reign of the Habsburgs ended on the 14th November 1918 when Czechoslovakia was proclaimed as an independent state.
During Thomas Garyk Masaryk Presidency Czechoslovakia thrived.
