SlovenčinaFragments of history
This portal is dedicated to fragments of history of Slovaks living abroad.
Why "fragments"?
Because- nobody can record the full history of Slovaks who decided to live abroad,
- the only things we can record are "fragments" of history,
- history is often shaped by the many acts of the small.
Why "history"?
Because- to remain ignorant of things that happened before you were born is to remain a child,
- if you do not know history, you do not know anything - you are a leaf that does not know it is part of a tree,
- history is a kind of introduction to more interesting people than we can possibly meet in our restricted lives - let us not neglect the opportunity
