Development Index,[14][15] a very high standard of living and performs favourably in
measurements of civil liberties, press freedom, internet freedom, democratic
governance and peacefulness. The country maintains a combination of market
economy with a comprehensive social security system. Citizens of Slovakia are
provided with universal health care, free education and one of the longest
paid maternity leave in the OECD.[16] The country joined the European Union in
2004 and the Eurozone on 1 January 2009.[17] Slovakia is also a member of
the Schengen Area, NATO, the United Nations, the OECD, the WTO, CERN,
the OSCE, the Council of Europe and the Visegrd Group. The Slovak economy is
one of the fastest growing economies in Europe and 3rd fastest in eurozone. Its
legal tender, the Euro, is the world's 2nd most traded currency.[18] Although
regional income inequality is high, 90% of citizens own their homes. In 2016,
Slovak citizens had visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 165 countries and
territories, ranking the Slovak passport 11th in the world.[19] Slovakia is the worlds
