Eastern Europe in the Dark Ages

Winner:

Have you ever looked at the Czech government's official website on the History of Bohemia? The English version is hilarious. It will say something like "In year so-and-so, Bohemia was a prosperous kingdom that attracted many merchants and traded with all of Europe blah blah blah...meanwhile, at the same time, Slovakia was still not even independent". They seemed to subtly make fun of Slovakia like that throughout the whole site.
 
. More specifically the first centralized Slavic kingdom, Great Moravia. What kind of society was it (most slavs up until this point were living in agricultural tribes or clans)? What kind of architecture did they use? How did they dress? What written language did they use before the adoption of Cyrillic? What was the religous situation, mostly pagan, mostly christian? How did they wage warfare?
So if anyone knows a good site, book, or other references, or can provide any information themselves, I'd be most obliged if you'd let me know.
