The authors have chosen indicators of development that could be beneficialin terms of decreasing historical economic developmental inequalities, with some differences betweenthe Three-Seas countries being analysed for the period of 2006–2018. The secondary data was takenfrom Eurostat and other available sources. The regional strategy should focus on the knowledge-basedeconomy, and the possibilities for rapid development in this area. This gives opportunities to make rapidprogress in a region centrally located in Europe to generate great potential to strengthen accumulatedresources and, in the nearest future, to create the possibility of becoming a hub connecting eastern andwestern Europe.
