From the earliest stages of settlement to the present day, the history of the settlement of Europe is linked to numerous migrations and colonisations. The ethnogenesis of Slovaks and their descendants, who, for various reasons, moved from the territory of the mother state and settled in the world can be traced in time, according to the causes of the eviction and by the place, area or country where they emigrated. Slovaks living abroad, who, for various reasons and causes, found themselves outside the territory of their mother state, are part of the Slovak nation. When researching ethnic minorities, it is necessary to take into account the fact of the intersection of the cultures of the minority community with the majority population, which is ubiquitous among Slovaks living outside the borders of Slovakia. The paper presents a short probe into some aspects of the migration of Slovaks in Hungary (on the example of Slovaks living in the Hungarian village of Mlynky) in the period from the 2nd half of the 20th century to the present day.

The culture and way of life of Slovaks and their descendants living in Canada (in the more than one hundred and fifty years of its existence on the American continent) have undergone several changes due to cultural changes (acculturation and assimilation) and the influence of globalization (and the presence of multiculturalism). These reasons are manifested by unique cultural elements and manifestations of the culture of Slovaks living outside the territory of the mother state. The paper maps and analyses the cultural potential of the Roman Catholic parish of St. Cyril and Methodius in Mississauga in the context of preserving and maintaining the culture and identity of Slovaks in this parish. It deals tangible and intangible cultural heritage, cultural organizations, institutions – associations, events and human resources. There are a number of Slovak institutions in Canada, which play a key role in maintaining the culture and identity of Slovaks. The results of the research can be the basis for further research and represent the status of activity and functioning of the Slovak community in Mississauga – a Roman Catholic Parish as an institution based on ethnic principle. The research material was obtained through short-term field research in April 2023.
