 The Hungarian military administration banned use of Slovak language in administrative contacts and Slovak teachers had to leave schools at all levels.Following extensive propaganda from the dictatorships – which pretended to be protectors of civic, social and minority rights in Czechoslovakia – Hungary restricted all minorities immediately after the Vienna Award.This had a negative impact on democratically oriented Hungarians in Slovakia, who were subsequently labeled as "Beneš Hungarians" or "communists" when they began to complain of the new conditions.
