   Extractions: Slovakia Slavic tribes occupied what is now Slovakia in the 5th century AD. In 833, the prince of Moravia captured Nitra and formed the Great Moravian Empire, which included all of present Central and West Slovakia, the Czech Republic and parts of neighbouring Poland, Hungary and Germany. The empire converted to Christianity with the arrival of the Thessaloniki brothers and missionaries, Cyril and Methodius, in 863. In 907, the Great Moravian Empire collapsed as a result of the political intrigues of its rulers and invasion by Hungary. By 1018 the whole of Slovakia was annexed by Hungary and remained so for the next 900 years, although the Spis region of East Slovakia belonged to Poland from 1412 to 1772. After a Tatar invasion in the 13th century, the Hungarian king invited Saxon Germans to settle the depopulated north-eastern borderlands. When the Turks overran Hungary in the early 16th century, the Hungarian capital moved from Buda to Bratislava. Only in 1686 was the Ottoman presence finally driven south of the Danube. In August 1944, Slovak partisans commenced the Slovak National Uprising which took the Germans several months to crush. In the wake of Soviet advances in early 1945, a Czechoslovak government was established at Kosice two months before the liberation of Prague. The second Czechoslovakia established after the war was to have been a federal state, but after the communist takeover in February 1948 the administration once again became centralised in Prague. Many of those who resisted the new communist dictatorship were ruthlessly eliminated by execution, torture and starvation in labour camps. Although the 1960 constitution granted Czechs and Slovaks equal rights, only the 1968 'Prague Spring' reforms introduced by Alexander Dubcek (a rehabilitated Slovak communist) implemented this concept. In August 1968, Soviet troops quashed democratic reform, and although the Czech and Slovak republics theoretically became equal partners, the real power remained in Prague.

   Extractions: Slovensky skauting is the National Scout and Guide Organization operating in the Slovak Republic. With 4,510 Scout members (and 3,000 girls), Slovensky skauting is the largest youth organization in Slovakia. Scouting in Slovakia started in 1913 in connection with Hungarian Scouting as Slovakia was, at the time, part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. On 1 January 1993, Czechoslovakia split into two countries - the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. Since then, Slovensky skauting has started its independent development. Slovensky skauting is working hard to train its leaders and to update its youth programme. Several training courses have taken place over the last two years and a Strategic Planning Seminar is being organized with the support of the European Scout Office. Reprinted from Eurofax 65 , February 1998.

   Extractions: Encyclopedia Slovakia 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 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. In the 18th cent.

Canada is a country notoriously known for introducing the game of ice hockey to the world. Although there were games of similar forms played around the globe ice hockey is the one to get dominate. As for instance bandy hockey a game very close to modern ice hockey was modified and later on fully replaced by ice hockey. At an early stage of ice hockey development in Europe the first European Championships took place in 1910 and the game was a mixture of bandy and ice hockey elements. The difference between bandy and ice hockey in general was mainly the rules and the protective equipment used by players. Bandy hockey used shorter sticks and protective equipment was also rather modest. The Canadian form of the game as we know it today fully took over the continent during the Olympic Games in Chamonix in 1924. But on the international scale an international organization was not established earlier than 1908 the International Ice Hockey Federation. The

    Extractions: History in Brief and the Present Situation After 1918, the framework of education for minorities in Slovakia were formed by the legal norms and general ethnic circumstances in the context of political and social development that existed in the Czechoslovak Republic. On the basis of the existing conditions and possibilities of special education for minorities after 1918, we can differentiate five stages of development of education for minorities: First Period : from 3rd April 1919 (after passing the Education Act No.189/1919 Coll. for minorities) to 2nd November 1938 Second Period : from 2nd November 1938 to 6th September 1944 Third Period : from the 6th September 1944 to 21st April 1948 Fourth Period : from 21st April 1948 to November 1989 Fifth Period : after November l989 First Period: This period is characterized by liberal understanding of the rights of minorities resulting from the democratic and republican establishment of the Czechoslovak Republic and international commitments of the republic following the peace treaties. According to Chapter VI of the Constitution List of the Czechoslovak Republic from 1920, all the state citizens of the Czechoslovak Republic were fully equal by law and enjoyed equal civil and political rights regardless the race, language and religion.
