The remains of Celtic oppida (fortified settlements) can be found in Bratislava or Devin. The Celts were forced out by the Germanic tribes of Marcomans which fougnt with the Roman Emperors Marcus Aurelius and Commodus (166 – 180 A.D.). Remains of the Limes Romanus – the fortifications on the Roman Empire’s northern border – are preserved in Slovakia. The German tribes were driven out by Huns led by Atila. Tribes of Western Slavs arrived on this territory at the end of the 5th and beginning of the 6th centuries. Soon they had to defend themselves against nomadic Avars and this activity led to the creation of tribunal union under the rule of the Frankish merchant Samo, known as “Sano’ s Empire” (623 – 658 A.D.) Early Middle Ages: After the break-up of Samo’s Empire Slavonic tribes enjoyed no political unity. Only Duke Pribina succeeded in establishing a larger state-like entity and founded the first church in this area between 824 and 828. He fought and was defeated by Mojmir, the Duke of Morava. Duke Mojmir I. established a united state called Great Moravia (830 – 908). His successor, Rastislav, invited the missionaries Sts. Cyril and Methodius to Great Moravia. They established an independent church province, developed the first Slavic alphabet (Glagol) using Greek symbols, and used it to translate the bible into vernacular. The most important ruler of Great Moravia was Svätopluk who battled with the East Frankish Empire. Great Moravia disintegrated after its invasion by Magyar tribes and the successes of the East Frankish Empire. The Magyar tribes established a Hungarian Empire in the Danube area and the territory of present Slovakia was absorbed around 1000 A.D. Developed Middle Ages: The development of the Hungarian Empire was interrupted by the Tatar invasion (1240 – 1242). After the Tatars left, Belo IV invited Saxons to come and live in Hungary, which significantly strengthened urban civilization. After the male line of the Arpad dynasty died out in 1301, Charles Robert of Anjou became king in 1308 and established the Anjou dynasty, which was followed by the Jagello dynasty in 1440.

At the very beginning of this period, we did not exactly have it easy. When just before Christmas in 2002 I took over responsibility for the administration and future development of our city, Bratislava was a quarter of a billion in debt, which was due to be settled in the sum- mer of 2003, but with only one quarter of this amount available to cover it. In such an atmosphere it was not exactly the best of times to think about development constructions.
