Austria-Hungary collapsed in the last week of October 1918. Czechoslovakia was proclaimed in Prague on 28 October. Two days later, at Turčiansky Svätý Martin, 108 Slovak delegates adopted the Martin Declaration, joining the Slovak nation to the new state — and they did it without knowing that Prague had already acted, because the news had not reached them. It is worth noticing what that means: nobody in Slovakia voted on any of it, and the borders of the new country would not be settled for another year and a half. But for the first time since Great Moravia, Slovaks were not a minority in somebody else's kingdom.Rakúsko-Uhorsko sa rozpadlo v poslednom októbrovom týždni roku 1918. Dvadsiateho ôsmeho októbra vyhlásili v Prahe Česko-Slovensko. O dva dni neskôr prijalo v Turčianskom Svätom Martine 108 slovenských delegátov Martinskú deklaráciu, ktorou sa slovenský národ prihlásil k novému štátu — a urobili to bez toho, aby vedeli, že Praha už koná, lebo správa k nim ešte nedorazila. Stojí za to všimnúť si, čo to znamená: na Slovensku o tom nikto nehlasoval a hranice nového štátu sa ustálili až o rok a pol neskôr. Prvý raz od Veľkej Moravy však Slováci neboli menšinou v cudzom kráľovstve.
