The army belongs to the most important pillars of every state unit. The ruler, having at least seemingly a uniformed homogeneous armed mass behind them, could present their power not only in front of their own people, but also in the context of foreign policy. However, the question remains, whether such an idyllic statement can practically be reached. A similar problem was dealt with by the ruling dynasty of the Central European monarchy, the Habsburgs, who, after taking power in the country on the Danube and under the influence of modernisation and technological progress, professionalised the country’s armed forces, which also included men from the territory of Upper Hungary who spoke the Slovak language and its dialect equivalents. Considering the scope of the issue in question, the study deals with the period from the introduction of supplementary districts at the end of the 18th century until the end of World War 1. with the basic methodological feat being the identification and theoretical definition of “Slovak” units (infantry, cavalry, artillery, and technical units), with an emphasis on the elite infantry units, commonly called “Field Jaeger Corps”.
