GLOSSARY OF SLOVENE - AMERICAN RELATIONS J |

We venture to say,
that the story of American democracy begins in Carinthia, the first Slovene state in the
7th century. JEFFERSON, THOMAS (1743 - 1826) So there is a persuasive documentation that this contractual relationship influenced the famous Virginian and that the story of American democracy begins in Carinthia (Karantania), the first Slovene state in the 7th century. The ritual installation of the duke of Carinthia that derived from those times was conducted in the Slovene language until the fifteenth century. The installation helped Jefferson develop the theory of the right of people to appoint their own leaders and of the power that emerges from the people themselves, ideas that he drew on when writing the Declaration of Independence. |
