ABSTRACT
The refusal of Hungarian history was very strong in the synthesis of Slovak history written by Frantisek Hrusovsky with several editions of his textbook appearing in Slovakia during World War II. Written with a nationalist perspective, it employed the leitmotif of the Slovak nation beginning its existence in a free, independent Slovak state after a long millennium in a foreign state under the rule of non-Slovak rulers. The Jagiellonians were mostly evaluated in relation and comparison to a few important points – Matthias Corvinus, and the Battle of Mohacs. The former represented one of the golden ages of Hungarian history, the disintegration of power, and, in national-speak, the loss of independence. The presence of Jagiellonian rulers in historical memory in the Kingdom of Hungary is rather insignificant when compared to their predecessors and successors. The Jagiellonians were mostly evaluated in relation and comparison to a few important points – Matthias Corvinus and the Battle of Mohacs.
