Slovakia was part of Czechoslovakia until it became an independent country in 1993. The Slovak language has some similarities to Czech but is different.

The Slovak diaspora is spread all over Europe but some are in Argentina.


What Are Their Lives Like?

Slovaks have contributed to Argentina through athletics, business, the arts and even philosophy.

What Are Their Beliefs?

Most Slovaks are traditional Catholics and many are atheists. Others adhere to religious rituals and New Age practices to fill the spiritual void.
