Bratislava ( ['brac?slava] ( listen); German: Pressburg formerly Preßburg, Hungarian: Pozsony) is the capital of Slovakia

The history of the city, long known by the German name Preßburg, has been strongly influenced by people of different nations and religions, namely by Austrians, Czechs, Germans, Hungarians, Slovaks, and Jews. [4] The city was the capital of the Kingdom of Hungary, a part of the larger Habsburg Monarchy territories, [5] from 1536 to 1783 and has been home to many Slovak, Hungarian, and German historical figures.
