The Slovak National Uprising (Slovenské národné povstanie, or SNP) was an armed insurrection organized by the Slovak resistance movement during World War II. Launched on 29 August 1944 from Banská Bystrica, the SNP attempted to resist German troops that had occupied Slovak territory and to overthrow the collaborationist government. Although the resistance was largely defeated by German forces, guerrilla operations continued until the Red Army, Czechoslovak Army and Romanian Army liberated Fascist Slovakia in 1945.
