Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Slovakia's story stretches back far beyond recorded history. This captivating book takes you on a thrilling exploration, from the emergence of Neanderthals over 100,000 years ago to the establishment of a distinct Slovak nation.Our adventure begins in the mists of prehistory, where we uncover evidence of the very first inhabitants - the Neanderthals. We follow the trail of successive prehistoric cultures who left their mark on the land, shaping the region's character. The mighty Danube River emerges as a constant presence, serving as a natural border for the Roman Empire (Limes Romanus) and a witness to Slovakia's early development.As the Migration Period ushers in a new era, the arrival of the Slavs marks a turning point. Sharing similar languages and forming tribal units, these people laid the foundation for the rise of powerful Slavic states. We delve into the possibility of Slovakia's inclusion in Samo's Empire, a significant early Slavic tribal union. Cities like Nitra flourish under Duke Pribina, becoming centers of another Slavic entity within Slovakia's borders.The book reaches a pinnacle with the rise of Great Moravia, a powerful kingdom encompassing parts of present-day Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Hungary. This era witnessed a flourishing of Slavic culture and the development of a distinct Slavic identity. The arrival of Saints Cyril and Methodius and the creation of the Glagolitic script mark a cultural and religious awakening. However, the decline of Great Moravia paves the way for Slovakia's gradual integration into the Kingdom of Hungary.Despite political integration, the embers of Slavic identity continue to burn. We explore how the Slovaks, separated from their fellow Western Slavs by political borders, carve out their own unique path within the multi-ethnic diversity of Hungary. The book sheds light on the development of the Slovak language and the gradual rise of national consciousness.History of Slovakia is more than just a chronicle of dates and events. It's a captivating narrative that unveils the forces that shaped Slovakia - from the arrival of early peoples to the development of a distinct language and the forging of a nation.
