@EuropeInDetail good facts, some images do not belong, but what is unbelievable is the pronunciation of Slovak words as names, cities, food ...- you got them all wrong - congrats; if those words where spoken to Slovaks, without watching the video, we would not recognize them
Slovak here, this was very pourly researched piece about Slovakia. Prononuciation were terible, Almost bot like.
As a Slovak, i must say you absolutly destroid most names, but i was dieing. ðĪĢ I would never imagine to be pronaundst like that, but fare to fare, most foregin people outside of country would probably say it in same way. All and all, it was nice video (besides those names ð (im sorry)).
You fucked up! Apologize!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
as it was said, pronunciation is terrible, even google translate is much better, you can get inspired by that. Apart from that, quite nice summary

As Slovak, I appreciate the effort and detail that went into this video. More attention could be put towards correct pronunciation, because if a foreigner will ask about any of these places or foods, locals will have no idea what they are talking about. It all sounds like a computer generated VoiceOver. Also, the UFO on the bridge is also a high class restaurant that slowly spins around offering panoramic view of Bratislava.
Koliba spins, UFO doesnt :)
It sounded like Brani-slava, not Brati-slava! Bordering on ridiculuous

The guy who made the video did not explain why Slovakia is allegedly "the craziest country in Europe'.
don't know about you, but I find having a tradition about harassing women pretty crazy, and if you are traditional woman in Slovakia and you enjoy it, it's fine, whatever floats your boat, but if you're not, I imagine being held by two dudes while two other dudes whip you with braided branches and another one is throwing a bucket of cold water on you (as demonstrated in the video) year after year, really annoying and degrading and let's not forget it's Easter, most of the time it's not warm enough to be wet outside and also in that day it won't happen once, it's done from morning to noon and every dude you know is gonna do it and they are supposed to be rewarded when they do so, like again that sounds pretty fuckin crazy to me.
@@nopenope1608 this tradition is always portrayed so horribly in all these videos, where I live people are usually decent human beings and usually just use a little sprinkles of water or some perfume instead of buckets of water also whipping was usually done softly just for the tradition to wish the girl health and beauty but ofc drunk fks and people that think they can use this tradition to satisfy their violent nature and low ego and not be "responsible" bc "It Is JuSt A tRaDiTiOn" are pretty much ruining it and making a bad name for it (also on monday it was the boys doing this and on tuesday it was the girls but it might be only in the part where I live)
@@nopenope1608see below. It's not quite how it's portrayed but very symbolic. Nobody would put up with it these days ð

My paternal grandpa, born in 1867, Emerich Olach and grandma, Maria Svajlenka were from the Slovak region of Czechoslovakia. Have always wanted to go there to search for cousins. Will be 72 in October, so I better get on the ball.
My dad changed the spelling to âOlackâ but I never knew why. He passed away 41 years ago.

At that time, when your grandparents were born, Czechoslovakia did not exist yet and no one had any idea of ââits future existence. It was the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.

The best on Slovakia is that You can eat there the poppy seeds with "sulance" or a poppy seed cake. Poppy seed is the stuff from which the opium is made and is forbidden in most countries in the world, but in Slovakia You can buy it in grocery stores.
Immature poppy seed is from which the opium as you know it as drugs is made. Mature poppy seed can be normally eaten cause it doesnÂīt contain any hallucinogenic substance and is safe even if you would eat a lot of it. ThatÂīs why it can be used in food industry. But I know itÂīs not so common in the west countries or in Asia where people mostly know only the opium related to immature poppy seeds.
Keby ten vedel koÄūko konope sa tu kedysi pestovalo... ð@@checkCZECHitOUT
dude i can eat it allday, the biggest problem is your black poop LOL
@@checkCZECHitOUT Over eating poppy seeds will give you stomach ache, but otherwise yeah it's completely harmless.
Thank you for your outside view and promotion of Slovakia. It was very interesting :). Please don't mind notes regarding slovak pronunciation. I know its tough for foreigners and you handled it well.
Right told, pronunciation is quite dire for outsiders, but there was lot of mistakes in whole video, while it seems like promotion of only west part, if he would promote Slovakia as it is this video would have more than hour.
what i find amusing is that czechs who have an official name czechia are called by czech republic, while slovaks who have slovak republic as an official name are called by slovakia :D

fact 49: St. Elizabeth's Cathedral in KoÅĄice is the largest church in Slovakia and the easternmost Gothic cathedral in Europe
fact 50: The coat of arms of KoÅĄice is the oldest documented city coat of arms in Europe
fact 51: KoÅĄickÃĄ detskÃĄ historickÃĄ Åūeleznica - Children's or Pioneer Railway - is a single-track narrow-gauge railway with a track gauge of 1,000 mm and a length of 3.9 km and it is the only pioneer railway still existing in the former Czechoslovakia. The interesting thing about this line is that children participate in its operation under the supervision of adults...

I love the way how you made a gorgeous video about my home country! Thank you very much for that :-)
While spending seven years (2003-2010) in my ancestral homeland (now the Czech Republic) I had many a Czech guy (of various ages) tell me that Slovak women are the loveliest in all the lands!. And, btw, slivovice (especially the pear variety) is deelicious! And, bramborak (a/k/a 'cmunda') is a most-tasty potato pancake indeed!
As a Slovakian citizen, I can 100% these facts are all true and that I had a really good time with those pronounciations :D thanks for the video, it was nice to see my home from a different perspective
I wouldn't say it's 100% true. For example, Kofola is not your drink, but it is a Czech drink.
pretty sure it was Czechoslovakia when it was invented. But it would be just another example of Czechs claiming something what was worked on together as their own.@@zenonpacilosnky407
It is drink made in Slovakia:)@@zenonpacilosnky407

I can confirm that Kofola is Great, I liked it more than Coca Cola and Pepsi, sadly, in my country I can't buy
Yes, but Kofola is from Krnov in Czechia, not Slowakia ;-)
I'm from slovakia and this popped up on my for you page lol xD
Thank you for the videoððĪâĪïļ! Slovakia is a beautiful country, I have visited it as a tourist many times abd I love it there. But sorry, Slivovice is produced in Vizovice, Czech Republic. Also Kofola was invented by Dr. Blazek in Opava in 1958 and is produced now in Krnov. Both are cities in Czech Rep.. As Czechia and Slovakia were one country for a long period, it's often difficult to tell the origin of various productsð. The same is with many other products from Central Europe...are they of German, Austrian or Czech origin? Borders are changing, people and traditional products stayð.
I love Slovakia! My mum taught me as a child but Serbian was my first language!

22 and 48 questionable. Tokaj region in Hungary and the palinka strong alcohol percentage Hungarian fruit brandy. Everything else makes beautiful Slovakia and strongly recommend to visit.
49. bizarre thing you forgot is that there are a lot of Hungarians living within 50 km of the border and bilingual communication is everywhere.Slovakia is beautifulâïļ
Such minorities are in every country close to borders. It is not special to Slovakia, and it would just trigger some Slovaks, as Hungarian did a lot of harm to Slovak ancestors. So why poke an almost healed wound. Because you are Hungarian? My great-grandfather was tortured by Hungarians, even had to change his Slovak surname to a Hungarian one to be able to keep his job... and earn money for his family.
Also this bilingual minority canNOT speak nor correct Slovak neither correct Hungarian language. They speak a local language mixture. I have friends from the area, and they told me that. Even my boss had to speak English to Hungarian business partners, because they could not understand his "Hungarian" language. So they are not really fully bilingual. Which is sad and lost opportunity. They cannot work in Slovak language as they don't speak or write it well enough, as their parents never pressed them to learn the correct version. Nor the correct version of Hungarian language. Again, this is what my friends told me. I blame the parents.
Yeah, you are right. It is bizzare that you mention it... You apparently have no respect or love to Slovaks to do that.
ModrÃ― kostolik - Blue church in Bratislava is nice - but you missed a few meters away from it - most important church in Bratislava - DÃģm svÃĪtÃĐho Martina - St. Martin's Cathedral. An amazing Gothic cathedral, in which the Austrian monarchs, including Maria Theresa, were crowned for more than a century, and the Klariska temple. The beautiful church of St. Elizabeth in KoÅĄice and, among other things, the wooden altar of Master Paul from LevoÄa, which is located nearby, are definitely worth mentioning. These monuments, like many others, for example, unique wooden churches in eastern Slovakia, are included in the UNESCO list. In short - you missed a lot... Next time you need to spend more time in Slovakia and consult with the locals...
Bratislava was the capital of the Kingdom of Hungary and its kings and royal wives were crowned here. It was at the time when Buda was occupied by the Ottoman Empire, i.e. the Turks.
every single pronunciation is totally off :D

Fact number 13 is really bizzare indeed, because the footage used is from a Lutheran church in a small town called KovaÄica, situated in todays Serbia. True, it is slovak, part of the slovak minority living in this neck of the woods for the last 300 years, BUT, it is also different due to the fact that it is a has never been part of Slovakia.
Unbelievable facts about Slovakia number:
49: There are 180 castles and over 400 of smth like small personal castles called KaÅĄtieÄū
50: in a village named Jablonec there is an organ (musical instrument used in churches) that still uses the original way of pumping air in through big bags and that organ is one of two in the europe that are still fully functional and are used daily
51: there is that one cave called OchtinskÃĄ AragonitovÃĄ and its one of the only THREE IN THE WHOLE WORLD aragonit caves that are accesable by public. The other two are in Mexico and Argentina.
52: as someone stated in the comments there are the oldest opal mines in the world but are nit accesible by public however people still enters them for urbex.
53: the bighest Opal in the world was mined in those opal mines. Sadly its not to see in Slovakia but in Austria.

Kapustnica - thick cabbage soup with bacon or sausage and mushrooms - and other ingredients - for example dried prunes - recipes differ in different regions... Cabbage soup is traditionally served on the first Christmas holiday, December 25, on St. Stephen's Day, therefore it is called Å tefÃĄnska kapustnica served with sour cream and fresh bread. must be tasted. BUT the national dish is BryndzovÃĐ haluÅĄky Bryndz dumplings. Bryndz dumplings were mainly the food of sheep herders. they are gnocchi made from potato dough with fried onions and bacon and with bryndza. Bryndza - Liptauer cheese is a traditional product. It is a soft sheep's cheese with a protected origin, like Parmesan, Roquefort or Emmental, similar to cottage cheese... Bryndza may only be produced in Slovakia and was patented during the time of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy... Unpasteurized - "summer bryndza" is probiotic atomic bomb. Despite the fat content of 56 percent, you will lose weight with its regular consumption. It tastes great with fresh milk.
Hi, the Slivovica isnt only Slovakias. It is Moravians (czech) and croatians too. Our main spirit I think is BOROVICKA somethink like gin.
Universitas Istropolitana is the oldest university in Slovakia , 15th century
Thank you !ð

my biggest love, my homeland, my heritage, my identity. Our SlovakiaâĪ
Thumb Up
Excelent video! I donât mind the pronunciation. Itâs great that somebody put so much effort to find all these informations. I can proudly show it to my foreign friends. Love from Slovakia!
Love Slovakia from Poland.
so glad to see poles liking slovakia since our government went downhill and unfortunately started supporting russia im so embarassed in front of you guys and czechs and other allies
â@disaster6347ððð
Bit Slovakia doesn't like Poland and Poles.ððð Czechs the same.
Nice video! Even as a slovak I didnât know about many things mentioned
The woman of my heart was from Western Slovakia, Holic. I love the melodic language, the longs stories, the polite and mild manners of the people I've met there. I hope the new generation is the same.
Lots of sympathy from Romania too!
I am 100% Slovak, my country is one of the best!
Iâd love to visit ðĻðĶ

Noice vid. We also have beverage called " BoroviÄka" also nicknamed as "Revenge from the forest" and u should try it :D
Oh Yeah!!! My country!!!
To the speaker: Please, before speaking about Slovakia, inform yourself about correct slovak pronunciation! Otherwise listening to you, how you spoil slovak words, is horrible. Do not ignore 13:28 letters Ä, ÅĄ, Åū, ÅĨ, Ä, Å, the small sign above is not an ornament, but a softener, making them a soft variant of the given letter. C is never K in slovak, but as ts in English. J is never dÅū or Åū but always J as in German or Scandinavian languages, like Y in Youth. And CH is not ÅĄ, but it is pronounced like kh in English.
Imagine someone finally cares about your country, this time ''not thanks'' to corruption and being couple of tens years behind modern civilization ( I am not talking about houses and how it looks here but about law, rules and mentality here). But you just actually did show ''actual OplÃĄtky'' we have right now in Slovakia and it's not based on warm welcome (like it used to) but separating and if you actually have problems with foreign people talking with ''clumsy'' Slovak language... you should see ppl talking in English in UK and how bad that was and it is actual known language unlike us right?
