Biserica şi şcoala în comunitatea slovacă din România

  • Subiect: According to the mast recent census data, the Slovakian community-the ninth largest ethnic group in Romania--counted about 20,000 people in 1992. The Slovakian community is concentrated into two distinct enclaves: the first in the districts Bihor and Salaj, around Budoi in the Plopişului Mountains, and the second in Banat, having Nădlac as its cultural, literary, religious, and educational center. The first Slovakians came to settle in Romania in Bihor in 1785 from the present-day territory of Slovakia, more specifically from the areas Detva and Kysuce, notorious for their poverty. The following group came to Banat in 1803; they were the descendants of those who first settled in the lower plain of the Tisza River, which is now in Hungary. The number of the Slovakians in Romania has had its ups and downs. However, most of them were repatriated between 1946-1947. Nowadays, the 20,000 members of the Slovakian community keep their beliefs and traditions. According to their religion, the Slovakians are divided as follows: 12,597 Roman-Catholics, 3,688 Evangelists, 850 Orthodox, 587 Greek-Catholics. Many of those who registered as Slovakians at the last census do not have Slovakian as their mother tongue but have been assimilated through interethnic marriages, a process which is going on.
