Great Moravia was first state formation that with its area had reached also the area of present Slovakia. It had been formed by merging of independent Moravian and Nitrian principalities in the 9th century. Its inhabitants were ascendants of Slovaks and Czechs. Character of the Great Moravian State we can mark as relatively centralized formation, where ruler and his family has dominated status. Despite the time of its creation this formation showed all most important signs of state. It has relatively well developed system of state bodies, system of local bodies as example of structured state area into smaller local units. Existing legal system in this area had ultimate signs of customary law, in the same time usage of written legal documents existed. During its existence Great Moravia had also independent church organization and it performed independent foreign policy. During its existence this state has been recognized as independent unit also from Pope. The most critical fact that contributed to downfall of Great Moravia in 10th century were on one side conquests of Hungarian tribes as well as conflicts in the rulers family. The existence of Great Moravia is in Slovakia for centuries accepted as important milestone of Slovakian nation in its attempts for achieving Slovakian state independency.

The end of World War I, dissolution of multinational Austria-Hungary and consequent for- mation of independent national states, borders of which were internationally guaranteed in the peace Treaty of Versailles, affected law development in the territory of Slovakia. These facts were not from the viewpoint of private law as substantial as revolution acts of 1848/1849; how- ever, they meant minimally a change in State and legal conditions, usually connected more or less with efforts to create new, mostly “national” law and a legal order. The revolutionary for- mation of the Czechoslovak Republic did not provide the time needed for creation of materially new law, and thus the institute of reception of law found its application, principally necessarily, meaning that from the material or contentual viewpoint the legal order of the newly established Czechoslovak State was identical to the legal order of the ceasing to exist Austria-Hungary, ex- cept for necessary changes related to the changes of the State and legal conditions. With regards to the fact that the legal order of Austria-Hungary was not internally, formally or materially the same, reception of law content determined existence of two legal areas in one, often claimed to be unitary, State. The author was interested in the legal area of Slovakia, where as consequence of reception former Hungarian legal norms (transformed to Czechoslovak norms valid in the territory of Slovakia) remained valid; and in its framework sources of private law, in particular specific for the Hungarian legal order — the legal customs and binding decisions of the Hungar- ian Supreme Court (the so-called curial decisions).

The paper consists of two parts. In the first part, the author explains the political views of the above persons at the beginning of World War II in the general domestic and international context. The other part includes eleven documents thoroughly explaining the then political situation in and the foreign policy of Slovakia. Much attention is devoted to considerations of a potential restoration of Czechoslovakia as an independent country or within a larger confederation or federation with Poland, or even with Poland and Hungary. The material adds to our knowledge of the polarization of views of the Czecho-Slovak relations in connection with the formation of Czechoslovak foreign resistance movement during World War II.
