Intellectuals seeking to revive the Slovak language and culture began the Slovak national revival in the 19th century. The formation of the Czechoslovak Republic in 1918 following World War I satisfied the common aspirations of Czechs and Slovaks for independence from the Habsburg Empire. Although Czechoslovakia was the only east-central European country to remain a parliamentary democracy from 1918 to 1938, it was plagued with minority problems, the most important of which concerned the country's large German population. In 1938, the Allies concluded the Munich agreement that forced Czechoslovakia to cede the predominantly German region known as Sudetenland to Germany. Then, in March 1939 Germany invaded what remained of Bohemia and Moravia and established a German protectorate. Slovakia had already declared its independence on March 14, 1939, and had become a Nazi German puppet state led by Jozef Tiso. On August 29, 1944, 60,000 Slovak troops organized by the underground rose up against the Nazis and the Tiso regime in what became known as the Slovak National Uprising. Although ultimately unsuccessful, this act of resistance became an important historical landmark for the Slovaks. At the close of World War II, Soviet troops overran all of Slovakia, Moravia, and much of Bohemia.

It fought at Lvov, Kiev, and was nearly destroyed by the Soviet counter attacks at Stalingrad. In 1943 it was withdrawn from active fighting, disarmed, and disbanded because of desertion and loyalty problems with the Germans. In August 1944 there was an uprising against the Germans. The uprising was defeated before they could link with the Russians.

The Slovaks in History
A.D. In the 9th cent. Slovakia formed part of the great empire of Moravia , under whose rulers Christianity was introduced by Saints Cyril and Methodius . From the Magyar conquest of Slovakia early in the 10th cent. until 1918, Slovakia was generally under Hungarian rule. German and Jewish settlements in Slovakian cities date from the Middle Ages; most of the Slovaks remained peasants in the countryside, although some became burghers. Czech-Slovak contacts, broken after the demise of the Moravian empire, were restored by the 14th cent.; and the 15th-century Hussite movement in Bohemia enjoyed influence in Slovakia. After the Ottoman Turkish victory at MohAcs in 1526 over Louis II of Hungary and Bohemia, Slovakia, along with western Hungary, fell under Hapsburg rule. It thus escaped Turkish domination but became a stronghold of the great Hungarian nobles, who owned most of the land and treated the Slovaks with contempt. Slovakia, however, played an important political role, with Bratislava serving as the Hapsburg capital, until all of Hungary was finally freed from the Turks in the late 17th cent. Slovakia also enjoyed more religious toleration than much of the Hapsburg empire, and Protestantism thrived.

http://www.slovak.sk/magazin_slovakia/496_Slovakia/history/history1.htm
HISTORY 1 ON THE WAY TO NATIONHOOD One of the most active of these was Juraj Fandly (1750-1811), priest, writer and educationalist, who proclaimed belief in enlightenment with the words: "The time of enlightenment is upon us. Through language, writing and books, we shall strive to raise our nation, if not to the golden, at least to the silver, age." BEGINNINGS OF NATIONAL
CONSCIOUSNESS
Slovaks were conditioned to the idea of national independence through disputes with the Hungarians during the 18th century. This was the time when scholar-priests and writers focused their activities on language, culture and education. A quarter of the Slovaks were Protestants, but the rest were mainly Catholics. Protestants used Czech as their liturgical and literary language interspersed with a few Slovak words. This was also the language of the first Slovak periodical - Prespurské noviny (Pressburg News), which first appeared in 1783. Protestants cultivated Czech and printed their works in that language. Catholic Slovaks used Latin in the liturgy. In their sermons catholic priests would interlard various Slovak dialects, for there was no codified official or literary Slovak at that time. It was natural, therefore, that the notion of a codified official Slovak language should strike root among Slovak Catholics, in the two western Slovak towns of Bratislava and Trnava.

It followed a pre-university academic curriculum similar to the German "gymnasium" or the more ancient Lykeion school of Aristotle. From the start it was a multi-lingual institution with subjects taught in German, Hungarian, and Latin . Its relationship to the church remained strong : the mind and the soul were attended. The school expanded and flourished until the Counter-Reformation when the buildings were turned over to the Jesuits in 1672. Ten years passed before the school was restored to its original educational pursuits. In 1815 the Lyceum added three elementary grades. These were taught in Hungarian, Slovak and German - the mother tongues of the students of that time. Later all the students would learn Latin. Also, students studied

As of January 1, 1993, Czechoslovakia ceased to exist as a separate entity and its territory became two independent nations, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

In the western part of Czechoslovakia Jewish life was mainly regulated by Austrian legislation (of 1890) and in the eastern areas by Hungarian (of 1870). The communal leadership was initially predominantly assimilationist-oriented to German, Hungarian, or Czech culture.

Not far from Bratislava, the Capital of Slovakia there start the Alps, the mountain range, which spreads through six states up to the Mediterranean Sea. Here begins the arc of Carpathian Mountains, which ends in the South-east, in the plains of the Black Sea. Through the city there runs the Danube, connecting nine states. Such significant features of the crossroad has also the history of Slovakia.
The country in the arc of Carpathians, in the South opened to the Danube plains was for thousands of years a place for gathering various cultures from the South and North, from the East as well as from the West. At the break of ages, in the first centuries of our era there lay the Limes Romanus, the border of the Roman Empire in the south of Slovakia. In the Danube plains the big invasions of the Hunes, Avars and the ancient Hungarians from the East were about to end. On the western border of the present-day Slovakia fell the pressure of Germanic tribes. From the Bratislava Castle one can freely see the Capital of Austria and for centuries also the Capital of the Habsburg monarchy- Vienna.
Various political, cultural influences, struggles for gaining control over the Carpathian Basin have marked the fate of Slovakia for good. The Slovak history as well as the country itself were little known abroad for a long time because of their being "hidden" in the histories of other, bigger state units. The state tradition of Slovak inhabitants, the ancestors of today's Slovaks is recorded already in the 7

HISTORY OF SLOVAKIA
From the castle in Bratislava, a symbol of Slovak statehood, it is possible to see with the naked eye the peaks of the Alps, the mountain range which stretches to the south-west up to the shores of the Carpathians, the second mighty mountain range of Europe which ends far to the east, at the plains near the Black Sea. This position of Bratislava and of Slovakia in the middle of Europe, on the border between East and West was and is symbolic. Indeed, its territory was encroached upon or its fate was jointly shaped by great empires: the Roman and Byzantine Empires, by the Frank Empire in the ninth century, by the Osman Empire during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and, in the twentieth century, by Germany and Russia. In Slovakia, significant European intellectual trends and movements exercised long-term influence: Christianity, the Renaissance and Reformation, nationalism, modern liberalism, socialism and even fascism and communism. The history of Slovakia is, therefore, the history of a European region. It was, to be sure, a region, which did not stand at the center of events nor determine their direction. Yet it did take part in important movements of European and world culture and left its mark upon them. But since Slovakia, except for a very brief period of time, did not exist as an independent state, most people knew little about its role in European history. It is hoped that this sketch of the history of Slovakia and the Slovaks will provide at least an introduction to their historical development.

Leslie Turek's Home Page
Torysky
(Village pamphlet translated by Pavla Kieferova) Torysky belongs to the characteristic Spi s villages with a rich tradition in folk architecture, clothes, crafts, dances, and songs. The territory of the village, which is spread in the heights 800 meters above sea level in the north part of the Levo c a mountains, has long been rich in forests, pasture, and meadows. It determined the character of the village and enabled its inhabitants to busy themselves first of all with pasturage, wood culturing, and farming. But what was the history of the village? Who were its first inhabitants? These are the questions that can be at least partially answered by notices of documents made from parchment (leather), by ancient yellow pages of old books and documents. Their testimony often correct (corroborates?) tales and fables which speak also about the origin and nomenclature of individual villages. It is similar in the case of Torysky. It is a fact that name of the village is derived from the river Torysa, which is named in documents from the 13th century as Tarcha, Tarcza, and it has a Slovanic word base. There is in a document of Uhorsky King Ladislav IV Kuman from Sept. 15, 1284 for the first time mentioned the area around the spring of the river Torysy (Tarchafeu), approximately the territory where lay today's Torysky. But it is not a proof which testifies about the existence of the village. Indeed, we know from other documents that after death of King Sigmund (1437) the Gorgey unjustly took possession of a big part of the forest named Trisko which lay in the territory of a village Vy

Czecho-Slovakia Slovakia Slovakia: Past, Present and Future
by James McCulloch For over 1000 years, an ethnic group of people, known today as the Slovaks, were under the rule of larger political entities. "Their (Slovak) history is not one of independence but of interdependence." (Steiner p.3) For the Slovaks, January 1st, 1993, was an extremely historic date. Why? This was the first day since the 10th Century that this relatively small ethnic group of Slavs had their independence. This essay will focus on the role that the newly formed Slovakia plays in stabilizing Central European politics along with a brief historical analysis of the Slovaks and a description of their global challenges that must be achieved. The history of Slovakian interdependence begins around the year 900, when the Magyars conquered the Slovaks. Hungarian rule over this race lasted right up until the end of the first world war. The late 1700's was when the Slovak nationalist movement really begins. At this time, the "Catholic Intelligentsia" (Brock p. 20) started the formation of the Slovak language. "They were the first to experience a sense of Slovak ethnic consciousness." (Brock p. 20) Since the fall of the Soviet block in Central and Eastern Europe, the newly established governments are changing dynamically. After being linked heavily with the Hungarians, Germans, and Soviets, the political stability of Slovakia and other Central European nations remains a big question. Due to Slovakia's recent formation and quite central location, their government could play a vital role in establishing positive relations with other states in the region and therefore, help create a political strong central Europe.

EU urges withdrawal of Slovak history book
Jun 25, 1997 By Janet McEvoy BRUSSELS, June 25 (Reuter) - The European Union urged Slovakia on Wednesday to withdraw a controversial history book disclaiming the persecution of Slovak Jews during World War Two. External Relations Commissioner Hans van den Broek told reporters he had appealed for the book's withdrawal to Slovakia's new foreign minister Zdenka Kramplova, who was in Brussels to discussSlovakia's ambitions to join the 15-nation bloc at its next expansion. ``I have asked her to take back this message that this work should disappear from the shelves as soon as possible,'' Van den Broek told reporters in reply to a question. ``It can create misunderstanding about what's being thought in Slovakia about the war period and anti-semitism.'' Van den Broek, who will announce on July 16 what the Commission thinks officially about the suitability of 10 eastern European countries to join the EU, said he had also reiterated earlier concerns about the political situation in Slovakia in general. ``At the moment we still have to overcome a number of obstacles, notably in the political domain,'' he said. ``There cannot be any misunderstanding about what quality of democracy the EU requires from its own members and from its future members.''

Slovak premier raps book denying hounding of Jews
Jun 27, 1997 By Janet McEvoy AMSTERDAM, June 27 (Reuter) - Slovak Prime Minister Vladimir Meciar said on Friday that parts of a controversial history book which denies that Slovak Jews were persecuted during World War Two was inaccurate and historically incorrect. But he said he would not bow to a European Union demand to have it withdrawn from bookshelves in Slovakia, although it would not be used as originally planned as a school textbook. ``Some parts of it are inaccurate or historically incorrect,'' Meciar told a news conference after a meeting between the EU and leaders of 12 countries aspiring to join the Western political and economic bloc. ``It is not the time for burning books ...,'' he said. ``This will not be used in Slovakia as a textbook,'' he added, saying that Slovak history ``needs to be processed in a way because there's no overall history of Slovakia existing so far.'' Tracing Slovak history from the First Century AD to modern times, the book denies that Slovakia's Jewish community, estimated at 70,000 just before World War Two, was persecuted under the clerical-fascist Slovak State, a Nazi German puppet regime set up in March 1939.
