The Group's name in the languages of the four countries is ''Visegrádská čtyřka'' or ''Visegrádská skupina'' (Czech); ''Visegrádi Együttműködés'' or ''Visegrádi négyek'' (Hungarian); ''Grupa Wyszehradzka'' (Polish); and ''Vyšehradská skupina'' or ''Vyšehradská štvorka'' (Slovak). It used to be sometimes referred to as the Visegrád Triangle, since it was an alliance of three states at the beginning – the term is not valid now, but appears sometimes even after all the years since the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in 1993. The Group originated in a summit meeting of the heads of state or government of Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland held in the Hungarian castle town of Visegrád on 15 February 1991 (not to be confused with Vyšehrad, a castle in Prague, the capital city of the Czech Republic, or with the town of Višegrad in Bosnia and Herzegovina). The Czech Republic and Slovakia became members after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in 1993. All four members of the Visegrád Group joined the European Union on 1 May 2004. == Historical inspiration == The name of the Group is derived, and the place of meeting selected, from a meeting of the Bohemian, Polish and Hungaro-Croatian rulers in Visegrád in 1335. Charles I of Hungary-Croatia, Casimir III of Poland and John of Bohemia agreed to create new commercial routes to bypass the staple port Vienna and obtain easier access to other European markets. A second meeting took place in 1339, where the future king of Poland was decided in case Casimir III would die without male issue. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Visegrád Group」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
