Abstract
Slovenia is the first of the recent Accession countries to the EU to adopt the Euro as its currency. Its location at the top of the Balkan line and just under Austria and Italy makes it psychologically advantageous as a bridge for commercial and financial entry to other Balkan nations. Advances in Slovenia’s steps to integration with the EU and other international organizations can be a model for further EU expansion and other current Accession countries in the process of adopting EU policies.
