Located on the eastern shore of the Baltic Sea, Latvia did not
emerge as an independent country until the twentieth century,
having been occupied at different times in the past by its larger
neighbors: Russia, Germany, Poland, and Sweden. In 1993, Latvia
held its first parliamentary election and elected its first
president after 50 years of a Communist dictatorship. With the
entrance of Latvia in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and
the European Union in 2004, the "post-Communist" era appears to be
over. The A to Z of Latvia details the changes the country has
undergone since the liberation of the country from the U.S.S.R. and
tells the turbulent history of Latvia through a chronology, an
introductory essay, a bibliography, an appendix, and several
hundred cross-referenced dictionary entries on important persons,
places, and events.
