Why did Czech Republic and Slovakia split up?

Both of these nations were part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire before the Great War. After World War II, they were bunged together to make country, even though they had very little to do with each other. The first chance they got after the Russians admitted they could manage their own affairs, they split up.\nIt's widely believed that the split that took effect in 1993 was encouraged by Czechs in the government who saw Slovakia as economically backward (which it was)and as a burden to the Czech lands.\nThe Czechs stole many millions making Slovakia a lot poorer than they were. During the split the Czechs flew nearly all of the commercial airlines into their country and when they split they kept them.\nThis process is known as The Velvet Divorce.

the parties emerged because the federalists wanted stronger federal government and the other one wanted a republic of state governments, the french revolution created a split because one (I think federalists) thought we should stay loyal to the french government for helping us in the revolutionary war, but the other supported the rebellion, because they thought theyshould support democracy

Iraq is like Yuoslavia.  Yuoslavia was an artificial country forced together by a strong dictator.  When the dictator was removed, the country fell apart. Iraq is one of the last remnants of the British-French colonial era.  It was cobbled together by the British as part of an effort to maintain a land route to India.  Iraq is not a homogenous group of people with a common heritage or religion. It consists of Kurds, Sunnis, and Shites.  The best thing for Iraq would be to split it up along the lines of these three groups, just as Yugoslavia disintegrated into several smaller entities.  Short of that, the only way to keep Iraq together as a cohesive unit will be for another strong dictator to appear and bring these diverse groups together by force. The concept of democracy as backed by the United States will never work in Iraq. After the Americans leave the country will either break apart in bloody war or be held together by a ruthless strongman.  Democracy is not and has never been a viable option.

Churchill and Stalin divided Europe before the end of the war, according to rumours they signed out the new spheres of influence on a yellow envelope, during some conference.\n\nThe issue of Poland as it appeared on the yellow envelope was 50-50. So not a real resolution at that time. I think in Yalta they came to a conclusion that it would be part of the soviet sphere of interest. \n\nSorry I cannot be more accurate, this is what i remember from my classes at university. Find the yellow envelope story.

Basically, it was unfavorable. The conflict spread to all parts of their culture, including religion and military.\n\nWhen the Polish acquired Ukranian lands, the people of Ukraine turned hostile. The Polish thought they were expanding; the Ukrainans thought they were taking over. Additionally, the two countries had religious conflicts on telling which was the greater religion.\n\nSoon, this feud involved outside nations, like Germany and the Soviet Union.

It changed to socialism, a popular form of economics in Europe.  It's a cross between communism and capitalism.  There also was a big black market in the Soviet Union anyways.  Only around 5% of the population of the Soviet Union belonged to the Communist party.

The Velvet revolution if I'm not mistaken led by the great man, Vaclav Havel, to free the Czechs from Soviet rule. Czechoslovakia became independent and then through a referendum became 2 separate nations - The Czech Republic and Slovakia.\n\nDo some research on Havel and the Prague uprising of 1968

I believe the main reason is economic.  \n\nA lot of Poles/Czechs etc move to UK to work and earn money to send back.  Most of these actually move back to their home countries once they have earnt some good money.\n\nThere are some Roma/Gypsy people who move to the UK for persecution reasons.
