History of ice hockey in Slovakia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Canada is the country widely known for introducing the game of ice hockey to the world. Although there were similar games played around the globe, Canadian ice hockey was the one to achieve dominance. For example: bandy hockey a game very close to modern ice hockey and native to Europe was modified and later fully replaced by ice hockey. When the first European Championships took place in 1910 the game was a mixture of elements of both bandy and ice hockey. The difference between the two was mainly the rules and the equipment used by players. Bandy hockey used shorter sticks and the protective equipment was also rather modest. The Canadian form of the game had fully replaced the other variations on the European continent during the Olympic Games in Chamonix in In 1908, the International Ice Hockey Federation , an international organization that still runs most of the international hockey tournaments today, was established. In Slovakia (as a part of former Czechoslovakia ), Canadian

History: The Beginning Formation of Slav States Middle Ages 19th Century ... 20th Century The Beggining (Part 1/6) The oldest surviving archeological artefacts from Slovakia date back to 270,000 BCE, the Early Paleolithic Era, and were found near Nové Mesto nad Váhom. These ancient tools were made by the Clactonian technique and are a potent reminder of the ancient inhabiation of the geographical regions known today as Slovakia. Other stone tools from the Middle Paleolithic Era (200,000 - 80,000 BCE) were discovered in the Prévôt cave near Bojnice and other nearby sites. Artefacts were discovered dating back to the Paleolithic Stage, include the famous Cranium Mold of a Neanderthal, discovered near Gánovec, a village in Northern Slovakia. Homo sapien From an archeological standpoint, the discovery of different instruments and objects made of pottery in several archeological digs and burial places scattered across the Slovakian Territory, and even more surprising, in the northern regions at relatively high altitudes, give evidence to human habitation in the Neolithic period. The pottery of Zeliezovce, that of Gemer and of the Massif Bukové hory is characterized by remarkable modelling and by delicate linear decoration, revealing the first attempts at coloring. These shapes reveal a developed of aesthetic sense. Several caves have also been discovered in Slovakian territory. One is the famous Domnica cave, almost 6000 meters long, which was inhabited down to a depth of 700 meters. This cave is one of the biggest Neolithic deposits in Europe and was inhabited continuously for more than 800 years by the same tribes who created the pottery from the Massif Bukové hory. A witness to the Pre-Neolithic era is the Luzianky group, found near Nitra and also the Lengyel pottery and the group of Boleráz pottery.

38. Links From The Slovak Embassy 14 brief chapters chronologically covering events on territory of slovakia written by known Slovak historian Lubomir Liptak. http://www.slovakembassy-us.org/history.html

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.

towns and villages SR map attractions tourism ... advertising The History of Slovakia 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
