It's not called the "Slovak Republic", but rather just Slovakia. The proper name of the neighbouring Czech Republic is just that instead of something like "Czechia", but this is not true for Slovakia.

Slovakia is a shorted name for Slovak Republic. Both are acceptable.

Sure, but it's like writing "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" instead of "United Kingdom".
