Border adjustment

Vága, March 14, 1939; Before World War II, under the pressure of the Munich Agreement, on November 2, 1938, the issue of the Hungarians in Slovakia was attempted to be resolved by signing the so-called First Vienna Decision made by the two great powers - Germany and Italy - in Vienna. Following the agreement of the Hungarian-Czechoslovak Border Commission, the village of Vága remained on the other side of the border, in Czechoslovakia. The Vienna Decision temporarily established the border between the two countries. There was constant negotiation about the border adjustment. This is how it came about that on March 14, 1939, Nagycétény and Vága were annexed to Hungary in exchange for Cseklész, Gány and Barakony, which were given to Slovakia. The village was annexed to Nitra and Bratislava by the decree of the Minister of the Interior No. 1939/7.900. It was administratively assigned to the Galántai district of the county. The Czech-Slovak officials and military handed over the village to the army captain Rezső Tornyai at 12 noon.
