BRATISLAVA SLOVAKIA THE ENTRANCE TO CENTRAL EUROPE

Would love to see a video about Riga, the Baltics and Daugava. Your video on rivers and port cities are my favorite, cheers!.

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 like the page turning audio

You can't convince me that the Boii are just the common culture phrase Boi in disguise

As a Bratislavian, nice video! There were things that even I didn't know about my home.

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”

Very good, thank you

Very well made video :)

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

thank you😀

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.

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.....

thank you

Best explained history of Slovakia in english language i've ever seen. thank you!

That was great. Thanks.

Well done. I would to visit your country.

Thank you for this.

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.

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.

Now Slovakia is a puppet state of the USA and the EU😒

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.

informations are not correct, study history before adding false informations here, reported.

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.

Hey, umm, you put Bojnice chateau on the thumbnail. Bojnice and Bratislava are around 170 km apart

Slava Slovensko

I didn't know, that distance from 2 cities makes you border 2 countries.

Great overview, thank you!

Name Bratislava is not from Bretislav a ruler. The oldest Slavic name for Bratislava is Preslava or Brezlavuapurc.

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.

bratislava has 700000 Pepole in 2023

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!

finally someone who doesnt present it as an always slovak city it was german and hungarian for most of history

Wild and crazy guys.

wait so the germans made the Slovaks deport the jews? That's not so genocidal. What was genocidal was how the germans were cleansed from Eastern Europe?

Tiso executed before the communist takeover, under the Democratic regime. Also deportation of Slovak Jews was for the most part being sent to extermination camps of Majdanek and Auschwitz-Birkenau.

Good and informative videos, however, some of the info is incorrect.
Not all of Slovakia was occupied by Germany and Glagolic and cyrilic alphabets were created in Bulgaria commissioned by Tsar Boris I. So, please, correct your info sources 😊
