Use your Euros in Slovenia

As of January 1, 2007 Slovenia made history by becoming the first former communist state to adopt the Euro, reports Australian news source NEWS.com.au. The Euro replaces the Tolar, the currency chosen as a symbol of independence when Slovenia split from Yugoslavia in 1991.

According to the article, Cyprus and Malta are expected to join the “eurozone” in 2008, with Slovakia aiming to adopt the currency in 2009.
