Slozo production gained a boost with the fall of the last imperial dynasty as the new republican authorities saw slozo as a drink of the masses, egalitarian and revolutionary in nature. The drinking of wine and other foreign drinks was discouraged while slozo production was granted subsidies and lands occupied by vineyards were taken over by donkey grazing grounds and ethanol production. The state even created the Slozo National Company to provide subsidized slozo to the public and mare's milk was given to school pupils as part of a balanced breakfast. After 1992 the Slozo National Company was sold off to private capital and changed its name to [[Imperial Slozo]] which ramped up production and advertising of slozo as the national drink. | Slozo production gained a boost with the fall of the last imperial dynasty as the new republican authorities saw slozo as a drink of the masses, egalitarian and revolutionary in nature.
