Abstract
The paper deals with the issue of re-emigration of the population from the Bulgarian village of Voyvodovo (NW Bulgaria, Vratsa district) to the South Moravian region of the Czechoslovak Republic, which took place in 1949-1950. Although the re-emigration of (not only) the inhabitants of Voyvodovo by the Czechoslovak Republic was framed by calls for the "return of compatriots" and accompanied by a number of promises, the post-remigration reality contrasted painfully with these promises ("the fact was that nothing had been fulfilled from the promises").
