Constitutional-legal framework for the establishment of an independent Slovak Republic on January 1, 1993

Abstract

The dissolution of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic into two separate states (the Slovak Republic and the Czech Republic) is still an example of the peaceful peaceful separation of Czechs and Slovaks for other nations seeking independence. Compared to the former Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, this process in Central Europe took place without a single drop of blood. When writing this article, we will use the content analysis method. The aim of our article is to show what constitutional and legal processes were most important in the dissolution of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic. We will show that the most crucial Czecho-Slovak institution was the Federal Assembly. In our conclusions, based on the Czech-Slovak example, we will also offer possible solutions to other nations striving for their independence.
