March 14, 1938
editI am sorry I got stuck making this edit, but perhaps the editors can help. The problem with the original write up is that it is factually inaccurate and does not correspond to the referenced declaration of the Slovak Parliament. In the below I provide a new text, with two references: a Cambridge University Press book and an AEPress book, with detailed accounts of the participants of the events by a renowned historian.
Original: In the lead up to World War II, ...., Reference 11
Proposed: In the lead-up to World War II, Nazi Germany exploited the geopolitical situation, including the Munich Agreement, the pragmatism of the Western powers, and the fragility of the security situation in Slovakia, to pressure Slovak leaders to declare independence to establish the first Slovak Republic as a client state under its control.[1] [2]

Landlocked country, landlocked state
editI would like to remove "landlocked country" remark, as it is the repetition of already mentioned landlocked state in the previous sentence. It doesn't sound good when same things are repeated several times. Can you just leave the word "country" instead. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Denisademkova (talk • contribs) 16:03, November 4, 2011 (UTC)
History in Infobox
editThe country infobox serves to briefly provide basic information. The same is true for the part involving history. However, this is not currently the case in this article. This section does not show the basic historical events crucial to statehood, but the whole historical discourse. This is not right and no other country's Infobox has it. Note that there are 10 historical events with lots of parentheses and notes. Compared to Germany, which has a much longer statehood, for which 5 events are enough. Simply compared to any other country - this Infobox in wiki article about a country is crazy and unprecedented. Not to mention that there is a historical event about the state (Slovak state during WW2), to which the current Slovakia does not reference politically or legally, and therefore it is not an event in its statehood. Therefore, I perform standardization with really basic and key events, not the whole discourse.--Igec133 (talk) 07:53, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
- Opposite. If, it is very big problem for You, the section can be collapsed. ✍️ Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 08:03, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
- Opposite. Every country has different kind of history, you cant remove important facts in infobox about Slovak history to only few basic points, just because you dont like how many information it has. The infobox is without change for many months and it looks like you are the only one editor who has problem with that. You constantly removing map - Slovakia on the globe, informations about Slovak history and also even anthem from infobox (thats pure vandalism). Please stop with your disturbing edits.

- I would also support removing the First Slovak Republic from the establishment history section. Croatia and Ukraine's articles don't include their respective Axis collaborationist governments in the establishment history section, so I don't see a reason to include a similar government in this page's infobox's establishment history section.

- Opposite. The First Slovak Republic didn't come to being as a result of a 'simple' ruling party change. It was the first Slovak country. Gyalu22 (talk) 13:40, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

Foreign Relations section needs update
editAs of December 2024 the Foreign Relations section is somewhat out of date with no reference to the diplomatic support it is giving Russia in the context of the War in Ukraine. 91.84.189.190 (talk) 02:52, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
- Slovakia is part of NATO and supporting all of EU sanctions against Russia, what exactly should be added in the context of the War in Ukraine? Dasomm (talk) 20:02, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
