Moravian-Silesian Region (Czech: Moravskoslezský kraj), or Moravo-Silesian Region, is an administrative unit (kraj) of the Czech Republic, located in the north-eastern part of its historical region of Moravia and in most of the Czech part of the historical region of Silesia. The region borders the Olomouc Region (to the west) and Zlín Region (to the south). It also borders two other countries - Poland to the north and Slovakia to the east. Once a highly industrialized region, it was called the "Steel Heart of the Country" in the communist era. Since the fall of communism, these heavy industries, mainly steel works, have been in decline and the region suffers from high unemployment rates.
