The removed paragraph Slovakization is often rationalized as a response to forced magyarization which happened mainly after the Ausgleich Compromise of 1867 While no one now considers magyarization a positive trend for several reasons the rationalization of slovakization as a response to it is questionable magyarization happened during the times of the monarchy and it happened in a time period when human rights were not considered nearly as universal as now Slovakization is happening since then and it was as severe under communist dictatorship as it is now in democratic I have removed this paragraph not because I would necessarily disagree but because this is a speculative formulation a POV in wikipedia terminology not suitable for an encyclopaedia If this was an undisputed topic maybe such formulations could work but since that is not the case it is definitely better to stick to pure sourced data
