Understanding the Slovenians

The interesting and vibrant culture of the Alpine Balkan country of Slovenia has common linguistic and historical roots with its neighbors Croatia and Serbia, as well as some similarities in literature and art. Nevertheless, over the centuries Slovenes have also created their own distinctive culture, based on local influences as well as those of neighboring Italy to the south and the Austria-Hungarian Empire of which it was once part.

Manila has been boosting up its tourism lately by erecting several casinos that could rival the world-class gaming facilities in Las Vegas and Macau. Last year, two casinos opened in Manila’s Entertainment City: Solaire in March and the City of Dreams (CoD) in early December 2014.

Laughlin, Nevada: Is a Casino Charter Worth It?
