After the Plebiscite of 1920 and also before that quite a few Carinthian Slovenes immigrated to the USA. Among them there were many priests and intellectuals. They had connections with members of Slovene Carinthian Clubs in Ljubljana and Maribor. They also tried the influence American politicians of Slovene descent so that they would ask American political representatives, when they visited Austria, to discuss the situation of Carinthian Slovenes with Austrian politicians. In the Era of internet American Slovenes of course also used internet connections to communicate with Slovenes in Austria.
