Czechoslovakia was originally one country, but then, for some reasons, Czechoslovakia was dissolved and Chen was given to two countries, the Czechoslovakia and Slovakia that we see now.
After the collapse of the country, Fizo stood out from the crowd of competitors, and in 1999 he founded the left-wing party Direction to compete with another party in Slovakia at the time.
In 2006, Fizo won the election by a landslide and became the prime minister of Slovakia, and served for a 17-year term, and in 2023, Fizo was elected prime minister of Slovakia for the fourth time, and of course he is currently the longest-serving prime minister in Slovakian history.

According to media reports on May 15 this year, Fizzo held a meeting in the Trenčín area on the same day, and after the meeting, Fizzo was ready to leave the scene, facing the people who were waiting excitedly outside the scene, Fizzo couldn't help but greet him.
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in the crowd, shouting in the face of Fizo, at this time the gunshots also resounded throughout the sky, just heard the gunshots, everyone was surprised, and many gunshots in succession blinded everyone, and when everyone reacted, they saw Prime Minister Fizo falling.

He then worked as a security guard for a private security company and also had a gun license, so his possession of a firearm was legal, and it was revealed that he had been personally assaulted.
And after the murderer was arrested, a relevant video was circulated, and the reason why the murderer shot Prime Minister Fizo is suspected to be because he does not agree with the policy of the Slovak government and the position of the state media, which is "for political reasons" to put it bluntly.
