Slovakia is offering citizenship to those who can prove their Czechoslovak ancestry. My mom (an American) is on a quest to take advantage of her Czechoslovakian heritage. Timely video for me.
I'm also looking into doing this. My great grandfather was Czech. ❤
my dad was born in slovakia and had to renounce his citizenship when he escaped communism (as a toddler) in the late 60s. he now is a citizen again and has a slovak/eu passport. he is hoping to apply for my sister and i too!
@@amyburgess7684 the Czech Republic has a similar program. (note - Czechoslovak is not a nationality or an ethnicity. It annoys Czechs and Slovaks when people talk like it is)
Must consider, my heritage easily verifiable in Eastern Slovakia on my dad's side.
Both great grandparents and grandfather born in 🇨🇿. Immigrated to US 1937, you know who showed up took over . But I just got their house back to our family 🇺🇸❤️🇨🇿. I'm going to try apply for dual citizenship of 🇨🇿
As a Bratislavian, nice video! There were things that even I didn't know about my home.
Nice
Best explained history of Slovakia in english language i've ever seen. thank you!
Thanks for watching
Would love to see a video about Riga, the Baltics and Daugava. Your video on rivers and port cities are my favorite, cheers!.
Riga, yes has to be done :)
Thank you for this.
While officialy Bratislava has only 450 000 people, those are only the people that are registered there. Many are simply not, but live in the city anyway. The mayors office estimated that Bratislava could be home to around 700 000 people actually.
Otherwise a great video.
Just as a fun note. When you mentioned, that Czech republic and Slovakia are still very close, it is a tradition for a new president elect of either country, to visit the other as a first official state visit. Just a little thing to remind us that we are still brother nations.
Thank you for great content! I'm a Slovak, living in Slovakia, and I've learned several interesting pieces of trivia about my own country from this video. Keep up the good work!
Very good, thank you
8:10 The cannonball is located below (approximately the second floor) to the left of the window. It's black.
thank you😀
The thing you have pointed with an arrow wasnt the cannonball you had been talking about. It is a sphere under the clock that shows Moon phases. The cannonball is lower on the tower. In fact, there are around 12 of them in various buildings around the city and they were put or kept there on purpose as it was a sign that the building was damaged during the Napoleonic siege and thus the owner is getting some tax cuts as reparations.
Very well made video :)
thank you
13:13 The picture is wrong, black covering whole Czekoslovakia. The Germans only occupied the Czek part. Slovak part remained non occupied, became an own state, governed by a Catholic priest (Tiso).
That was great. Thanks.
Wild and crazy guys.
9:00 - monastery of st. benedict near the village where I come from... thanks
Well done. I would to visit your country.
Great overview, thank you!
I really like your video, it is very well made and is possibly the best I have seen on this topic. However, I would just like to mention a fact that I have read about the name of Bratislava. I believe that the first written mention of Bratislava is under the name of Prezalauspurch, which then evolved into Pressburg and the Slovak name, Prešporok.
Thanks for watching :)

I like the page turning audio
the sort of practical feedback I like and never get, thanks :)
@@GeoPerspective my pleasure
@@GeoPerspective As additional tip, here are two videos about video editing that could help your improve your videos.
-Johnny's video formula, more about the structuring of a video: czcams.com/video/dIKsEhX-vyU/video.html
-Video about the trick that Vox uses to make their text engaging: czcams.com/video/2ZCwFRKofbA/video.html
-Second video about the editing tricks Johnny Harris uses to keep the viewers engaged: czcams.com/video/nZrPVUzYHKE/video.html
The quick summary is that a good way to get a viewer engaged is to make the video feel like they are reading a book when it comes to text. One thing I think could work well which is similar to the page turning audio would be for example making the different film rolls change by the earlier video clip vanishing by going up and the new video clip comes up from the bottom (the editing trick video has a quick showcase of a similar thing with pictures), while also having an audio effect of slide projector changing a picture. This would imo work best in the bits where you have historical video footage playing while you are talking over it.
@@alehaim Thanks for the links. I definitely haven't seen all of them. Need to try to shake things up for sure.
The only problem is any time I try something "different" from my usual city videos or move too far away from Eastern Europe or Russia the views are terrible. Also, my viewer retention is decent, getting the clicks is the hard part it seems.
finally someone who doesnt present it as an always slovak city it was german and hungarian for most of history
velvet revolution was in 1989 (change of the regime), and Slovakia became its own country after the fall of the iron curtain in 1993.. you completely mixed the two.....
You can't convince me that the Boii are just the common culture phrase Boi in disguise
I didn't know, that distance from 2 cities makes you border 2 countries.
Hey, umm, you put Bojnice chateau on the thumbnail. Bojnice and Bratislava are around 170 km apart
As long as it’s in Slovakia
@@GeoPerspective fair enough. I mean, our country IS smaller than some (if not all) of the Great Lakes
I notice that slovakia 🇸🇰 or czechslovkia 🇨🇿 was attached to Romania 🇷🇴 , and now that part is Hungary 🇭🇺. How and why did that happen?? My great grandmother 👵 had alot of same superstitious as the Romanians 😄
Slava Slovensko

At 15:53 you show a map of Europe and draw the iron curtain as running through Austria. Please fact check, it was not that long ago.
Austria was captured by Soviets and it was divided like Germany, but Soviets and USA made an agreement and left Austria. (That's why Austria isn't in NATO)
Name Bratislava is not from Bretislav a ruler. The oldest Slavic name for Bratislava is Preslava or Brezlavuapurc.
bratislava has 700000 Pepole in 2023
0:25 - Bratislava has no border with Hungary, it lies some 10km south.
It does have a direct border. Cunovo, Rusovce and Jarovce are direct districts of Bratislava, not a separate villages. They are sparsely populated yes, but still Bratislava nonetheless
I live in Bratislava. The economy is way worse than you say and the average salary is around 1100 euro if you are lucky. The average cost of a one room apartment is 600-700. Count that with the 35% income tax and the over 14% increase in inflation on food.
Pracuješ ako upratovač?
@@adamkramar2575😂😂😂 a z toho platí 35% daň.
700 za 1 izbak je total ulet.
Slavic Vedas (Russian: Славянские Веды), also known as the Slavic-Aryan Vedas (Russian: Славяно-Арийские Веды), are the ancient sacred texts that are said to have been passed down from generation to generation in Siberia, Russia.
Slavic paganism or Slavic religion is the religious beliefs, myths, and ritual practices of the Slavs before Christianisation, which occurred at various stages between the 8th and the 13th century.
Slavic culture is one of the oldest cultures in the world. According to many sources, slavic people have common ancestors (Aryan race) with those now living in modern India and Iran. This link has been confirmed by genetic studies as well as linguistic and tradition similarities. Some Russian words even have Sanskrit counterparts, including one of the most recognisable words - Vedas. The verb that comes from this word (ведать) means “to know and understand”.
The culture of pre-Christian Russia and Eastern Europe is often referred to as Slavic Vedism. It is a wholistic understanding of the world, which recognises micro and macrocosm similarities and connectedness of everything in the nature. People realised that the interests of everyone cannot be above the interests of the person, but at the same time each person should be working for the good of the community - like the cells work in the body, and are nourished by it.
Slavic Vedism teaches that there is just one god, which is expressed in different natural concepts, phenomena or physical objects and is connecting the entire universe together. People viewed nature as their home and were seeking to cooperate and understand it, not fight or conquer it, in the same way that you would not fight your own home.
Slavic tribes and Viking tribes were closely linked, fighting one another, intermixing and trading. “The presence of Slavic warriors in Denmark was more significant than previously thought; this image emerges from new research”
Excellent information.
The historical part is simply wrong in many ways, not very good research, lots of mixup between austrian and hungarian infuence, the devil as always in the detail, otherwise nicely done
@perseus274 Cope slav.
informations are not correct, study history before adding false informations here, reported.
Slavic, Slovak tribes was there long before arrival of Huns...Slovan, Slavic and Slovak REAL history is suppressed and today explanation of history around 2 century is not thru.
Azt nem tudom hogy a hunok előtt éltek már a Pannon vidékén szlávok, de a mai magyarok felmenői 86% -ban szláv . Az én családom egyik fele horvát a másik pedig jász(Jazig) Nem is értem hogy mi magyarok és a szlovákok min vitatkoznak? Nem értem az ellentétet? Közös történelem és kultúra. Szlovákia szép ország !🇸🇰🤝🇭🇺
Slavs arrived to Central Europe fleeing from the Huns. There were Germanic and Celtic people there before.
@perseus274 Those are not the most common surenames in Hungary. The most common surename is Nagy. Why do you feel the need to lie?
@perseus274 Which of these tribes had clearly Slavic names? The Romans only mention Celtic and Germanic tribes.
@perseus274 lol "Nagy" does not mean naked, it literally means big in Hungarian even today. You did some serious mental gymnastics there.
2. Tóth is a common surename becouse it was given to ANY family with a Slovak origin when they got administrated in Hungarian. Since Slavs were mostly serfs they often did not have surenames that's why they were named based on their nationality. In short Tóth is a common surename, becouse it was not really a surename first, but an umbrella term.
3. Kovács is not just a Slovak word. It is also a Hungarian one. Yes, originally it's a Slavic loanword in the language, but that does not mean people who are named that are Slavic, becouse it just means blacksmith in Hungarian too. Blacksmith families from any origin were called Kovács.
Slavs are and never were barbarian people. Only known migrates were coming from the middle of Asia as wild Magyar hords. Today's Hungary who occupy 1000 years took the most fertile part of South of Slovakia Slavs came from time of Noah start live on Earth. God gave us the most beautiful land for we were the most prefer and you shall not change us. Your informing is incorrect and barbaric alone. Samo in 6th Century confess of being us intelligent nation set the first king. Any bad talk of use is improper and not true. No barbaric we still are but here people are raise that way. Even child to hurt adult parents are teaching. The difference is if you are American that this land God did not give to you and being barbaric coming to it already. Working towards destruction of this beautiful continent also. Mary Visionary. 9.30.2022 2:41AM
not sure you watched my video
@@GeoPerspective I refuse to believe a real person wrote that comment :D
@@filiprebro I mean they even date and time stamped it, definitely a "real" person. 😐
Some people are actually this deluded here. Often there's an urge to prove his tribe was first on the playground even if nobody is arguing about it. Then there's this non-barbaric thing. As it was mentioned in the video the first Slovak state deported jews into death, and also started to get rid of other ethnic groups, so IMO this is just as barbaric than any other nations history.
Slovakia will be leading the same direction as Hungary. They stopped arms supply to Ukraine, what a shame. Putin and russia are happy. Europe and Poland should start boycotting this country.
So you're for the bombing and murder of Orthodox Christians in Ukraine! Sicko. Zelensky has been terrorizing Christians for a 10 years now.
Thank God Putin came to protect The People from that nasty DC puppet president dictator Zelensky.
Well,I didn't vote for this disgreaceful goverment.Hope they won't stay for the whole elected period.
