Since this period the Bratislava region has been continuously settled. The Romans played an important role in the history of the city in the first half of the last millennium, when the Danube River became the frontier of the Roman Empire. By the end of the migration of nations, in the 5th century, the Slavs had arrived in the Bratislava region and in the beginning of the 9th century, definite boundaries between the Slav and German worlds were defined. The development of crafts, increasing social stratification, the establishment of tribal principalities and their mutual struggles led to the establishment of th first independent state, Great Moravia, in the first third of the 9th century. From 1536 to 1783 Bratislava was th capital of Hungary, the seat of the parliament and central bodies and the coronation town of Hungarian kings In 1993 Bratislava became the capital of the independent Slovak Republic. The nearest international airport (45 km from Bratislava) is Vienna International Airport but the local Bratislav airport offers regular flights from Prague, Moscow and Munich. Bratislava can be reached from Vienn International Airport in approx. 90 minutes by shuttle-service.
